I do mine like this:
************ Name, address etc. Overview - A dedicated blah blah blah. Gently but truthfully sell yourself here Experience ----Company - Date --------Project - Project Description - Skills Used Education ----Don't forget to put in the courses you have completed. Honors ----Could be employee of the month, recognition for work well done etc. ************** I had to use the dashes to show indentation. The main thing for technical positions is to show that you can handle the stuff they have for you to do and learn the stuff that you don't already know. If you are discreet about looking around, then there is no reason you should worry about this. If you don't get picked up, you still have your current position.

funtional vs chronological
A functional resume probably makes the most sense for this position, as it is a specific skill set.
But my thinking on going chronological was that it tells the story of how I got myself where I am. Quote:
In a chronological resume, my job history becomes the main section; and my experience in each position tells a story of career growth, of how I got where I am. The few positions I've had become large sections, full of accomplishment. If I had to list my job history in a separate section, it doesn't look like much, and it doesn't go back very far. I thought I might do a functional-type resume in three chronological sections. More of a narrative resume. Is this a feasible idea?
