- Engineering, finance and public sector
- Recruiters who scan by date
ATS and readability
Dates sit in their own column as plain text, followed by the role and bullets. Parsers handle this layout well.
Tip: Trim roles older than 10–15 years to one line each; the date column keeps the timeline readable.
