What If You Are Still Engaged In Your Employers Position?

What If You Are Still Engaged In Your Employer's Position?When writing a resume, a question that comes up often is, 'What if you are still employed by your previous employer, but your current employer is seeking to hire someone else?' There are several good reasons for this. The first of these reasons is because of the 'above the line' method used by many companies today.In the above-the-line method, current employer is looking for someone that will carry on the work they are doing. The reason for this is it is more cost effective for them. You may be seeking employment, but your job could be threatened by the new hire.It is important to note that you can answer this question by putting to present date if still engaged in that position. If your employer has said they would prefer to consider another candidate, you should make it clear you will not be able to be completely withdrawn from that position, and that you will accept any offer made. When you are prepared to do this, you will find it is much easier to obtain an interview. Your employer will appreciate this as they can see that you are serious about your new opportunity.The above-the-line method is not always the right approach to take. For example, in the case of an employer that is trying to retain an employee, they may well want someone that has some experience in the position they wish to keep. In these circumstances, it is possible to say that you are currently engaged, but would be happy to consider other opportunities before the end of the year. In this instance, you would not be in the position of being quoted, so will not have to get quotes from other companies.When answering this question, you will need to remember that if you were to apply for the same position at another company, you could take the opportunity to present your skill set and experience to them. This does not mean that you would want to pose your skills and experience as being employed at your previous employer. In fact, you sho uld state only that you would be happy to discuss your skill set and experience with other companies. They will appreciate this and appreciate your skill set.You may also be asked, 'If you are currently employed by your current employer, is it correct to state to present date if still engaged in that position?' Well, this is one of those situations where it is not really the job of your employer to decide what you should say in your resume. It is your job to present a convincing cover letter, and your employer may well think that you are being too positive.In the end, answer this question with what you intend to do after you have presented your resume. If your intention is to find a new job, say you have no intention of taking on any new job. When writing a resume, it is important to consider all of the points above.
