Resumes
« on: May 22, 2015, 09:21:42 am »
Do you guys know if we're supposed to provide our working experience from more than 10 years ago in a resume? I'm trying to apply for a teller job.

I worked in recruitment for more than 10 years. I always preferred to see all working experience, especially permanent positions. If you are applying for a Teller position, I would expand on any work history that is similar to the position you are applying for. Good luck!

i know it might be hard to remember dates and everything but always try to put all jobs and info on a resume it just looks better that you are honest and took the time to make a complete history of your job experience --my opinion only

I was always told that if the old job experience applies to the job you are applying for, go ahead and list it.  Also, you don't want to show a gap in your work history unnecessarily.  I usually just list the dates and name of the company and position but don't give any detail on the really old stuff so that it doesn't take up much room.  I figure if the interviewer is interested, I can elaborate in person.  Hope that helps.  See the reply from the person who was a recruiter.
