How to put multiple roles at one company in a resume?
In the 5 years I've worked at this one company, i've had 5 different roles. Think, Financial Analyst to Sr. Financial Analyst to Business Analyst, etc...all increases.
Is there a way to put this in a resume without wasting 5 lines in a resume? How can I consolidate? I don't want it to look like this:
Sr. Financial Analyst Financial Analyst Business Analyst
Or should I just list my first role and my current title? Thoughts?
Agree with Cola Coca. Put all the positions or just the ones that you think are the most important. Or maybe the three that were most recent, but definitely not just current and first. Also make sure to elaborate what you did at each position.
How to list multiple titles at same company - student (Originally Posted: 05/14/2014)
Quick question for you guys, feel free to ignore everything except for the way the dates are listed.
I have worked at the same company for 3 summers in a row now (including this one), and am not sure how to list this on my resume. I have been advised to list the titles as they are, because the jobs were somewhat similar. However, I don't know how to list the dates. I have included a couple of options in the attachment.
So my title was Administrative Assistant for summer of 2012, Accounting Assistant for summer 2013 and from April 2014 - Present
Please let me know what you guys think, how to go about this.
(And I'm not exactly applying for IB jobs so no need to point that out)
EDIT: And I'm going for reverse chronological order
Looks very confusing! I would separate the internships. Under each internship I would write 2-3 things that were significant (trying to keep it within one page). There you can make the dates really clear.
You can also try listing the time there as one line and highlighting each experience separately. Or you can also go the route of condensing to one experience and make a point to show progress throughout the years. Im a little unorthodox with my resume and i havent actually had to screen any in a little while so other people might give you better advise. Just makes more sense to me to keep it as one seeing as im assuming that you did them over summers and didnt actually work for 3 years straight.
More than one position at a firm? (Originally Posted: 09/01/2009)
Hey All,
Is it okay to apply to multiple positions at the same firm? What are some of the drawbacks of doing that?
I'm asking because my OCR starts soon, and there are a multitude of positions available. Some are my targets, some are mediocre, and some are safety. If I apply to the target jobs at a firm, can I also apply for their mid-office ones in case I cannot get the front office ones?
Please advise! Thanks
There are certain banks that will scrutinize that more carefully than others from my experience. Having done OCR not long ago here is a list of banks that will not care if you apply to more than one positions:
Citi JPM RBS
The companies that do screen carefully
GS MS Deutsche
I applied to 4 front-office positions at Blackstone and received invitations to interview for 2.
I don't know what the general consensus is for FO vs. MO or BO though.
BX is different though. At my school, there were a number of kids who got offers from both M&A and restructuring.
One drawback is that the bank may decide which position they think you are most qualified for and give you an interview for that position rather than the position that most interests you. For example, if you are really interested in IBD, but apply for S&T and IBD, the bank may decide that you are better qualified for S&T and give you an S&T interview, but not an IBD interview. Had you only applied for IBD, you may have gotten the interview.
Generally I wouldn't apply to multiple jobs at one company. Obviously there is nothing wrong with applying to the same job in different cities.
Two Titles, how would you rather see it on a resume (Originally Posted: 10/13/2014)
So I now have two different titles that do two different functions. What would be the best approach for formatting the resume. I'm thinking because they are different I would lay them out separately like :
Company Position 1 Date from-Present Responsibility Responsibility Responsibility
Position 2 Responsibility Responsibility Responsibility
Usually if they were similar in responsibilities I would do it more along the lines of:
Company Date from-present Position 1/Position 2 Responsibility Responsibility Responsibility
Responsibility
What do you think would be better for the resume?
I would use the first one
Company A Position 2 - Date From YY/YY - Present -Bullet -Bullet
Company A Position 1 - Date From XX/XX - To YY/YY -Bullet -Bullet
This is probably the cleanest and easiest for readers to follow, especially if the positions are materially different from each other (ex: Position 1 = IB analyst, Position 2 = ER associate)
