I have an MA in history and am trying to get into consulting, tough, I know. Another issue is that I worked my way through college (GWU) and grad school (University College London) as a waitress so I have a lot of hospitality work on my resume. If I leave it off it means large gaps in my employment. How should I handle this? Do you think I should throw in the towel? Thanks. Hi, Kevin.

I am looking at a boutique consulting firm. I was just wondering whether I should mention the F500 fact on my resume/coverletter or not. I am not so sure whether my current company is well known as it is a niche defence contractor and most people probably haven't heard of it. I currently work for a Fortune 500 company.

Very helpful and enlightening! I have a question regarding 10): I recently graduated from College with 2BS. I did work prior to attending college part-time in the finance department of CE (while pursuing my Abitur). Also, during my semester breaks I've worked with various companies (however, not in the field I want to pursue). My question, you said that we should limit ourselves to the past 3 employers. I'd like to keep CE on my resume seeing that it is the longest (4yrs) corporate experience I've had so far. However, by adding CE and deleting other "minor" occupations, I'd create huge gabs .. Any suggestions? All the best Gisela Kevin,

It has been very helpful. I am graduating next year and am currently writing my cv. I haven't had much work experience but have participated in a lot of extra-curricular activities. Would you advise writing a chronological CV or a skills-based CV? Thanks! Hi Kevin,
