You're right, tw, the entire format must be dictated to best display what I am offering in myself.

I've been doing some descriptive writing. It's late, and I have no idea how this opening paragraph sounds:
Quote:
Overview: Over the last **** years, I have proven my ability to serve as the sole System Administrator of a large-scale Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS). I oversee all daily operations; provide 24-hour support; and advise management on strategies needed to maintain a competitive quality of service and adherence to regulatory compliance. I maintain system components, troubleshoot all issues which impact workflow, and act as lead contact for PACS-related projects which involve additional resources. I have risen to this level of responsibility by demonstrating the ability to quickly grasp the complex interplay between various systems, maintain effective communication with users at all levels, and devise an organizational system for the vast documentation involved.
I'm aching to say "And I was a FILE CLERK at this place five years ago..." but I don't know how, or if I should, phrase that.

"I have risen to this level of responsibility..." is the closest thing I've come up with, without saying something that might be a turn-off.
