  • Absolutely! Also, one thing I noticed: your current resume doesn't mention Maverik, even though I know you're currently a Gas Station Manager there. That experience is actually much stronger for the types of jobs you want than fast food because it demonstrates retail management, sales, operations, and leadership.
  • I'd also recommend listing Maverik as your current position and moving Taco John's into your previous experience (assuming you've since left Taco John's).
  • Here's how I'd rewrite it:
  • One more recommendation
  • To maximize your chances of landing a $75k+ SDR, BDR, or corporate sales role, I'd also redesign this into a modern, ATS-friendly format with clean section headers, better spacing, and stronger accomplishment-oriented wording. That style is much more likely to catch a recruiter's attention than a traditional Indeed-style resume and will help you compete for corporate positions.
