I’m a Jack/Jill of All Trades. Is That a Good Thing?
Yes and No.
Yes, because I have no doubt that you have learned and do WAY more than what your current or former job titles and job descriptions suggest.
No, because you don’t want to market yourself that way on a resume.
During interviews, you can absolutely bring up past stories and wins to illustrate your versatility (as well as include SOME of them on your resume), however, on paper, you want the reader to very quickly and very clearly see who you are and how you align with whatever role you are applying for.
Keep in mind that you can (and should) always adjust your resume based on the role you’re interested in.
Simply highlight the most relevant points, so a hiring manager can easily connect the dots, to then increase your chances of landing an interview.
