Hi Lisa,
I spent a significant portion of my career (more than twelve years) as a
consultant, interrupted by brief stints on staff (don't ask). I list the staff
positions chronologically on page 1. On page two, I list the job title as
Publications Consultant with the date ranges (1989-97, 2002-03, 2006-07). The
job description is something like this: Consulted with a variety of clients to,
blah, blah, followed by a bulleted list of the most interesting clients and a
brief description of each project. Since it's all be software docs, I include a
phrase that describes the product (to indicate experience with the domain).
Hope this helps.
...Susan

Thoughts?
