Been Here So Long...

Some good tips on CareerJournal for anyone who's spent most of their career at a single company, something that one recruiter calls "an absolute red flag." Sad but true - It's as much of a flag as listing, say, 10 jobs in 10 years on your resume. So, writes Dana Mattioli, consider these tips:

  1. Show progression.
  2. Show adaptability.
  3. Use numbers.
  4. Group skills together under subheadings.
  5. Bolster experience.

There are links to sample resumes and, of course, a few war stories to go along with them.
