This question is about employment history.

What do I do if I can t remember my employment history?

By Zippia Team - Dec. 7, 2022

If you can't find your employment history, try referring to tax returns from the IRS, requesting your earnings information from the Social Security Administration, or contacting your former employers.

If you can't remember a job you worked in the past, there's a good chance it doesn't belong on your resume anyway. Don't worry about leaving off some unimportant jobs -- you can change your work experience dates to only years (2020) instead of months and years (March, 2020).

That way, you're not making unnecessary gaps in your employment history, but you're still optimizing your resume to show only the most relevant experience.
