    i wouldn’t.

    if a prospective employer sees a company they do not recognise on someones resume, they will look it up.

    when they see that its MLM, they will probably scrap your resume, because it basically says “I’m a gullible idiot”

    Your resume reflects your academic qualifications, experience, personal profile etc and so you may include all companies where you had worked.

    No. Absolutely not.

    On the Record: It says that you won’t be giving your future employer 100% of your effort because of this “business”.

    Off the Record: It says that you fell for a scam and you will need to find other suckers to join so you will try and recruit your co-workers.

  5. How To Get Free Marketing Leads

    To me, resumes are more about achievement than anything. In your MLM, have you achieved success?

    As a business owner looking to hire you, it wouldn’t impress me much to know that you spent a couple hundred bucks to join an MLM and then lost money at it. If that were true, I might just omit that segment of history.

    On the other hand, if you knocked it out of the park, that would interest me greatly. Building a successful network marketing team is no small task, and the individual who’s done so is qualified to do a number of other things too.

    I don’t mean this in a snide way at all, but I’m guessing you didn’t hit it out of the park (or, you probably wouldn’t being applying for said job.) Unless you can find a way to demonstrate skill and expertise by mentioning your MLM experience, you might want to avoid it.

    Mainly because you WILL run into people who see it as a negative. You don’t want to be on the defensive. Success is the surest way to avoid that… it’s hard to criticize success.
