Likely Signing/Closing Deals on Resume for Public Co
Hi all, I'm currently working in corp dev in a publicly traded tech company (pretty well known) and am looking to update my resume. That said, the deals I've worked on are still ongoing and are in late stages (confirmatory diligence; high probability of sign/close) and I was wondering how I can best put these under my transaction experiences (or if I should just not put at all).
When I was in banking, I'd put the general industry of the company (e.g., infrastructure software company) that I had exposure to and it wouldn't be much of an issue. That said, being on the buy side, I could see how even this level of information could be pretty sensitive (i.e., the interviewer will be able to see and ask about the type of target company that my public company is looking to likely buy, before it's publicly disclosed). Should I just refrain from adding this transactional experiences altogether?
Would appreciate any thoughts or inputs from those that went through similar experiences. Thanks in advance!
You can talk through the deals you are working on during a phone chat, but I would not include any non-public info, even if it is blinded, in writing on your resume. A ton of risk and little reward. Speak about the tasks you complete on a day-to-day, weekly, monthly basis. All deals are the same (to a certain degree).
Thanks for your input. That's what I was thinking (keeping everything verbal). Definitely agree on your point on all deals being the same from an execution and responsibility standpoint. I'm just slightly concerned that if there's no transaction experience shown on the resume, the initial impression that a reviewer might have is that I don't actually have any experience at the company.
Should I consider putting any bullet point like "Willing to share high-level transactional experiences to be shared verbally due to confidentiality"? Not sure if I'm overthinking this.

You could add a bullet that says something along the lines of "Reviewed [#] of deals and submitted [#] of IOIs, with [#] of opportunities in various stages of active deal process".
I would find it weird if I saw a resume that had non-complete deals listed from buy-side perspective like "Deal 1 - IOI stage, Deal 2 - LOI Negotiation", etc.
