RESUME QUESTION:If I stopped working for a position for a company, then a few months later rejoined that same company in the same position..?

Update:

How do I format my resume...add a semicolon with the new period of work or write out a new section with respective bullet points for that same position?

    Don't write the same job twice. If it was just a few months or so I probably just write it as one continuous job. They'll have no way of knowing and it will make the resume confusing. If it was a long time put both time periods in one line, for example: 2012-2013, 2014-2015

    You can do it two ways: you write ONE entry for the job with the dates you worked there (both times) such as "May 15, 2011-December 10, 2012 and June 5, 2013 - May 11, 2015" or write it as one date from the first day to the last--ignoring the gap. I would rather see the correct dates than the one that ignores the gap, but it's up to you.
