Previous Exp placement on CV?

KdjaCL

What is best way to show this ?

From oldest to newest ot newest to oldest?

I have changed this on my CV 3 times as employers read it wrong,

2003-2004
2003-2003
1995-2003

1995-2003
2003-2003
2003-2004

Whichever way i put it the next person who reads gets it wrong really i have changed it a few times and 1st thing i hear is "oh you worked there last month ) ehh no it was 8 years ago.

I can't see any problem with the way you have yours but I put mine in order of most recent first. The way I write it is like so,

Job 1 - 2004
..blurb..

Job 2 - 2003
..blurb..

Job 3 - 2001
..blurb..


I put the year in as the year I finished working with the company unless it was a long placement. Then I'd put something like

Job 4 - 1995 up to 2001

Honestly, if the person can't read that right then they shouldn't be giving interviews.
