YSK that when you’re applying for an internal position, you need to write a brand new resume rather than just updating your old one.
HR already has your previous version on file, so the goal is to demonstrate significant progress and growth since you were first hired. It is much better to treat your last resum as a reference document and re-write the new version from scratch. If you don’t, you risk looking like the perfect candidate for your *current* position, which is the last thing you want.
Why YSK: According to Vertical Media Solutions, your focus should be on where you want to go rather than where you have been. You need to highlight your **new institutional knowledge** and show that you’ve already outgrown your current grade. Starting from a blank page allows you to frame your achievements specifically for that next step up. #education
