Yes. Going through the VetNet workshops recently, the concensus is that a summary statement should now be used in place of the "Miss America" - IrishStephen (Master of The Filthy Jock Strap) Mar 6, 11:53
If you go to 2+ pages overall - I would. And the Summary should be 2-3 lines. -- nm - Mel Profit Mar 6, 11:47 6
- I think I'm going to two pages. let me ask you (specifically) this: you've moved up in an organization, yes? - Moray Gerbson Mar 6, 11:51 3
  - List them under the Company's name, i.e. BA - Senior BA - Financial Manager -- nm - IrishStephen (Master of The Filthy Jockstrap) Mar 6, 12:07
  - How I did this was to list the last position only and then note my promotions in the accomplishments area. - spamlet Mar 6, 11:57
  - it was a lateral move but I get your question... - Mel Profit Mar 6, 11:56
- Oh come on, a table of contents for your summary is classy. -- nm - Spawn Lord Mar 6, 11:48 1
  - Grown Ups are talking, sweetie... -- nm - Mel Profit Mar 6, 11:49
I have a profile section. Three sentences. -- nm - Roger More Mar 6, 11:46
