BLUF: How do you handle multiple titles/positions in one company on your resume?
I started at my current company in Apr 2007 as an engineer. Since then, I have held two different titles since then and am now being asked to hold a fourth. Each 'tour of duty' has lasted about a year or so and the reason I've been moved around is because, due to some downsizing, my skills have been deemed more appropriate and applicable in other areas.
I could fill up an entire one page resume with just my roles and accomplishments at this company, let alone the three companies and one temp job I held before this. How would you suggest I handle all these roles within one company on my resume?
Thanks.

The way I handle these is to group them all under one company for many reasons. It represents your stability correctly in terms of you staying with a company. It saves space on your resume. And I would hope that as you move from position to position, you can show increasing responsibility in each new position.
I also like seeing jobs listed this way when I look at resumes. I had one the other day that listed different positions split up and I almost missed that it was the same company. My initial impression was "gosh, this person moved around a lot" rather than "wow, this person got promoted a lot".
Big difference, right?
