DHResumes Indeed in Chicago, Illinois

34 months ago

The job market in Ohio is pretty tough. Take a breath. I can help.

For one thing, your work history is fairly long. That's good.
Also, the two most recent positions that you've held are of a year or longer durations. That is also good.

Depending on the types and levels of jobs to which you are applying, you might exclude some of the older positions from your resume. This enables you to highlight your more recent, more stable work history, while honestly removing the positions of shorter term. Get to the interview first, then honestly explain the missing years if the company asks. I agree with DLP about excluding explanations of this nature from your resume.

Stay confident and good luck!
