Resume Help
Hi All,
I am hoping you can help me figure out how to format my resume to best reflect my accomplishments! I am applying for a managing editor position and here is my dilemma:
My title at work is manager. However, I have several subtitles depending on what project I am working on. One subtitle is managing editor for a magazine. I have been managing editor within this project for 5 years. I have only been manager for a few months because I just got promoted (before I was a coordinator).
Obviously I need to highlight my managing editor position for this new job. How do I do this in my resume? Do I list my multiple titles?
Also, since I have only had my new title (manager) for a few months, how do I list accomplishments? I don't have much yet that I have done in this specific position.
I hope this post makes sense...thanks for any help!
Re: Resume Help
I would do something like
Company Location
Manager
Bulleted job description; don't worry about accomplishments since it's only been a few months
Coordinator
Managing editor for X Magazine
Other bulleted duties and accomplishments
I would also highlight the managing editor gig in your cover letter so they know you have experience in this field.
