Breaking Apart Work Experience

by kdpjenkins2 » Sat Sep 01, 2007 2:55 pm
Hi Stacy and Amy,

Thanks for all of your support and encouragement on this board.

I've started the application process, but I'm stumped on how to enter particular work experience. I served for two years as an AmeriCorps member working for a non-profit and then joined the same non-profit as a staff member. My salary as a staff member significantly jumped and makes my increase in "salary" seem far-fetched.

In a case like this, should I break this experience into two? Or should experience at the same organization always be collapsed into one entry?

Best,
Kevin

Hi kdpjenkins2,

Wouldn't you technically have been working for Americorps, and then the other non-profit? I think either way is fine, but I would probably separate the two to indicate that one engagement was as part of Americorps and one was as a full time employee.

Good luck!
