    As seems to be the fashion lately, here is my current resume. I'm still working at the most recent job, but as a friend of mine once said, "I can smell the shit in the wind" and am stepping up the search for something new. Any advice or input would be welcome. Real names and addresses have been changed to protect the guilty

    OK.

    The basics: I would personally bold the company name and date in addition to the position title. I'd also position the date with tabs instead of spaces. I might futz around with the formatting to see if there is any way to get it down to one page--even if that meant dropping the 96-97 job and the one that you only did for a year in 2000. I'd have to spend more time reading the whole thing to decide if I'd do that or not.

    I'd look at moving the contact info into the Header area and I would definitely put an (over) or (continued) on the bottom if you opt to stick with two pages.
