Hey folks,
I'm applying for some godforsaken jobs as a catalog writer with devilish consumer corporations looking to sell things to poor people who can't afford them.
My issue is that my resume highlights the current position I hold (since 2008), which is completely irrelevant to my interests as a journalist. The resume doesn't do justice to the regular freelance jobs I have. Yes, freelance job is a paradox, but alas, it is regular work w/o formal salary for me.
I'm wondering, do I create a 'Freelance' section at the top and list the publications, role, and period I've been there? Or should I give each publication its own block?
i.e.,
NAME
ADDRESS | CONTACT INFO
ABOUT
-Arrogant and vague abbreviation of my talents
FREELANCE
-Paper A
-Magazine B
-Website C
WORK EXP
-Irrelevant Job A
-Irrelevant Job B
EDUCATION
-Fuck school
SKILLS AND AWARDS
-Bleacher Report Man of the Year
I'm leaning toward the above as an example simply because the duties/responsibilities don't really change.
Thanks!
