Happy New Year Buffistae!
I am back in the office. Technically working.
This must be what going mad feels like.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Up all night. Sick. Blech.

Actually, Matilda is quite eager to explain everything to you, only it's in a language that no one else can understand.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Say one is updating their resume for no particular reason whatsoever.
Say one is looking to get into a more administrative position as opposed to another boring ass, dumb accounting position.
Should one still use the CFO title on their resume or willi t scare potential, hypothetical employers?

Trust my rage
willi t scare potential, hypothetical employers?
I think this. *Unless* you make it obvious that you were working with a very small firm, which could have real advantages because it shows that you are both technically skilled and able to work with real independance

What Stephanie said, Aimee. Leave the title, but explain/expand in the cover letter about the job and the firm.

Yes, you can use your cover letter to explain that you were responsible for financial operations in a small firm, but wish to transfer your skills. I'd concentrate on admin work in financial firms, because they will appreciate that you can speak their language. Just be careful to delinate your duties/expectations, otherwise someone might claim that they're hiring an admin, but really want you to do accountant work for admin pay :) t /cynic
