Do you write all Job titles with month/year duration in resume?

Jan 19, 2021 5 Comments

Do you write breakdown of Job titles like below in resume ?

Software engineer: start month/year - to end month/year
Software engineer - 2 : from start month/year - to end month/year
Senior engineer :from start month/year - to end month/year

And if this is in multiple companies then there will be multiple designations over few years .
So do you write them all in resume and linkedIn ?

or can we just write the present designation and few others in between ? In this case will this be an issue during background verification . If say you clear some interview after that during background verification do they check all your previous positions or only the last one ?
Can they even know also what was your position in a company from what time to end time ?
I believe it's just the last designation matters.
Any experience guys ?

Starting to give interviews after long gap and writing all designations makes resume clumsy , So want to make the resume concise but not at a cost of misrepresenting positions which may cause issues later in background verification at offer stage in happy case scenario.

Any idea or experience guys.

    Only if you switched roles (eng, TL, Manager). Otherwise it is not particularly useful and I’d use the last designated title. e.g Senior Engineer is fine even if you started at entry level

    • But can that amount to mis representation also? Because i can say I'm a senior engineer since last 4 years where as u may be senior for last 1 year only, yes at the end its interview dependent but ia there aby chance of getting into issues with this? That's what i have done now. I have written senior engineer but I'm senior since last q year i joined as sde2 5years back..so just want to be careful

      I’ve been told it’s okay to put only your last title for your company without listing all your previous roles there

  • Last designation, unless you changed job families.
