Well, if you're passing a resume through a friend, leave everything on it, and just have him pass the word that contact with your current employer is not welcome, unless they are ready to give you an offer. I went through the same type of thing last year.

My thought was to put the title, but not the employer...but I agree that would look odd.. :-) -----Original Message----- From: Joseph Heaton [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, August 18, 2010 1:18 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Re: Resume "best practices" What I've seen recently is that companies want you to fill out an application along with submitting your resume. On the application there is normally a spot where they ask if they can contact your current employer, and you can simply say no. But you definitely want your complete experience to be reflected on your resume, and if you've been with your current employer for any amount of time, leaving them off would be a pretty big employment gap. >>> John Aldrich <[email protected]> 8/18/2010 9:54 AM >>> Hypothetical -- If you are still employed, but shopping around for a better situation, would you put the name of your current employer on your resume or just the title?
