How to conquer a demotion on a resume.

It’s a fact of life, mergers and acquisitions have been plentiful in the last few years. Restructuring goes part and parcel after a merger and one of the benefits to an employer is resource consolidation. Many people loose their jobs or are reassigned to other duties laterally or demoted.

As a Resume Writer I am charged by my client to provide them with the optimum return on investment and entice a potential employer into granting an interview.

When writing a resume, I am very open in clarifying the reason why a client has been demoted.

“Reassigned duties as the Sales Account Manager as a result of a business realignment after a merger with ABC Company”.

It’s simple and truthful.

Are you in a similar position? I can help!
