Hello, I am getting ready to start looking for a new job. I have a long list of professional and military skills. This got me thinking, should I somehow list real estate investing in there as well. Let me know your thoughts. Hopefully I posted this in the correct spot. Thanks

Ryan

@Ryan Proffit If the rest of your resume will show that you are qualified for the jobs you are applying to I would leave the REI out of it. Employers want to know or at least think that you are all in on their corporate mission and may take a side business as taking your attention away when you are working for them.

Could you get a company who is open minded about it? Sure, but I wouldn't risk it. Tell them what they want to hear to get the job.
