#CVTips:
We reviewed a client's resume yesterday and I was shocked to see his work experience dating back to 1990.
Let me say this again...including your entire work history is unnecessary in most cases.
So how far back should your resume go? A general rule of thumb is to provide 10-15 years of your job history as it relates to the new role youβre targeting.
This typically covers your related experience, accomplishments, and your goals for your next career move.
Unless they specifically request a lengthy work history, you can leave off how you became a first-time manager in 1988 or your college internship back in 1975.
Remember, the goal is to tailor your resume to the job youβre applying for now, and to give only the most relevant information for that specific opening.
