You Are Not Your Job Title.
The customary and easiest resume format to put together is the Chronological resume-Start with you most recent job: employer, dates, job title and competencies. So logical and so ordinary: easy to write, easy to follow and unfortunately for many, so easy to keep you pigeonholed in the work you are doing or have been doing, when what might really be best for you now is to adjust your work targets to something more contemporary, more in demand and relevant to your own growth needs.
To sharpen your mobility substantially from a resume point of view, learn a variety of formats and how to use the best ones for your particular needs. Not knowing how to do this constrains your flexibility in a market that seems to demand it.
