Limit the Number of Positions Listed
It is not necessary to list all 10 positions held over the last 30 years. Try to stick to 10-15 years back and then add a line that merely states “Previous Positions held prior to {add year} can be provided upon request”
This is a great way to focus your resume on your relevant work history for the current position you are applying for.
Last of All
List your positions from most recent to least to provide emphasis on your current skills. Make sure you focus your wording for all the transferable skills amongst your most current positions as that is the area the employer will seek out first.
Good luck with your job hunting!
