After 10 years at my first company out of college, I'm ready for a change. I've worked my way up bit by bit over the years, so I've held several different titles, and I'm not sure how to represent that on my resume. Brief summary:
Specialist (2 years)
Sr. Specialist (4.5 years)
Manager (1.5 years)
Sr. Manager (.5 years)
Moved to new department
Sr. Manager (1.5 years)
And I'm expecting this review cycle I'll be promoted to Principal Manager (which is a stupid title that sits between Sr. Manager and Director)
How would you represent that on a resume? It seems ridiculous to have a separate listing for each position, but if I lump any together, which title do I use? Is it appropriate to have just two listings, one for each department, and indicate the career progression in each? Something like this:
Department 1
Progressed from Specialist to Sr. Manager, 2008-2016
Department 2
Progressed from Sr. Manager to Principal Manager, 2016-2018
