Dear All,
I have completed MBA (HR) in June 2007. After that, I joined one consultancy and worked there for 6 months with a salary of 5000 per month (June-Dec 2007). Now, I have appeared for another course, so I left that job. Please guide me on whether I should mention this experience in my CV, considering the salary is too low as per the market value.
Please guide me.
Regards,
Vidya

Hello friend,
In my opinion, there is no need to hide anything. Please mention chronologically [with dates] about the job and experience, name of consultancy, and salary. Do not hesitate to state the correct salary. Let your CV be an "open book"; it will help you all through your future career.

I agree with Nishikant; you should mention your experience on your CV, because who knows that may be exact requirement of your new employer. Raj

Hi Vidhya,
Good morning! It's always beneficial to mention your full experience regardless of any issues, as it will add significant value to your profile. I would suggest being "open." As for the salary aspect - no worries, as it's not a major concern.
Keep smiling 😄

Dear Vidhya,
A good recruiter is not going to look at the type of experience but the quality as well as what you have learned from it. We learn a lot more about professionalism (attire, punctuality, workplace behavior, etc.) when we join work than just the work itself. As to the salary, again a good recruiter will know that there is a wide discrepancy in salary structures within a city itself, so they would focus on your capabilities rather than your previous salary when determining their offer.
Also, if you want to differentiate yourself from your classmates who are new to the corporate world, your past experience should give you an edge if you use it effectively.
So, please do include your experience, as all the others have already suggested. Good luck.
