So you're saying this person or anyone should put on their resume, rather than

    [last position] [last company] [long time ago - 8 months ago]

they should put

    Personal Marketing Assistant    Me, Myself and I    8 months ago - Present
     * Analyzed potential job contracts with future employers
     * Bid for relevant contracts using specialized letters of qualifications
     * Proselytized Mr. John Do to applicable markets using word of mouth and print
       techniques

    [last position] [last company] [long time ago - 8 months ago]

?

Employers, how would you see this?
