I have a full-time job and two free-lance jobs as follows: 1) Job 1-- full-time job 2) Job 2-- freelancer; previously I worked in their office for 2 years (part-time then full-time) 3) Job 3- solely freelance How should I list it on my resume? Should I put consultant? How do I address Job 2 where I was both an in-office worker and a freelance worker? For Job 2, should I list my title as 2003- current (includes both freelance and in-office)? Or, TITLE 2003-2005; Freelance TITLE 2005- Present?

Basically as you have stated it here in your question.

I don't think you have a problem, just list it as is. We are all used to using freelancers and consultants, so it is only fair that you get to list that in your resume.

I would list yourself as a consultant instead of freelancer (it sounds more professional). For Job 3, list the types of businesses you consulted for (even list their names, if appropriate) and a "Top 3" list of responsibilities. Focus on your biggest or most successful projects. For Job 2, I would first list your title as consultant and put the timeframe that you worked part-time for that company. Then list a separate title with whatever your title was for that company and put the timeframe that you worked full-time. Treat these as two separate jobs. For example, it could look like this: Consultant, Job 2 (January 2003-December 2004) - Provided strategic planning recommendations to the president of research - Traveled to more than 35 locations across the U.S. to survey franchise managers on operational procedures; developed results report and presented to board of directors Manager of Research and Development, Job 2 (January 2005-February 2006) - Put whatever you did here and so on... Hope this helps!

Personally, I would list it under experience or skills, such as in a functional resume. Check with your local One Stop (formerly Unemployment Office) and they can help you there. Good Luck!!

It is better to get our resume written by professionals as it would boost our chances of employment. Try the links in http://www.thequickinfo.com/resume/ and try for resume writing by professionals.
