Resume

I have been at my job now for almost a year (which I love my job and dont plan on leaving any time soon) but haven't really updated my resume since I got this job.  I have worked in 3 departments so far and start a new position next week.  How should I put all of my responsibilities.  Also all of my department changes were not because I was a bad fit or did a bad job in other departments and I have had different managers try to get me back to their departments.

what's the question? are you trying to figure out how to update your resume because you have been at the same job but in different departments and you're not sure how to write it out on your resume?

My question is how do I update my resume to show everything that I have done at this job.  My job has provided job descriptions for us in the past, but I am not sure how to organize everything on my resume.

Do work in a department store? I would just list the different job titles from that employ as well as list duties you were expected to do beneath it. Bullets would make the duties easy to read for prospective employers.

Never list responsibilities, only list accomplishments.

For example: Lead the team in a corporate sales initiative that increased overall sales for the month by 10%.

You should list the various titles held all under one heading (the company) and not as separate entries.  It would be assumed, I think, that those were more or less promotions and not the other way around.

And it's always a good idea to update your resume, even if you aren't currently looking for a new position.  It's much easier while the details and specifics like software used, etc. are fresh on your mind.

This. It's always a good idea to keep your resume updated. Personally, I also keep a running list of key accomplishments and supporting facts/figures. That way, when I need to present a resume to someone, I can quickly consult my list and tailor the contents to that specific occasion.

When writing about job experience in a resume your company details would come up and after that you may mention Different verticals in your company you have worked and just show your areas of responsibility that you handled in those verticals or departments of your company .And later show the months of experience you had in those area’s.
