Been with my current employer 7+ years. It's kinda tough consolidating all that time into a few bullet points. I don't even know where to start in terms of major accomplishments as I've been a part of countless successful projects.

I bounced around a bit before then trying out a few different areas of IT. I'll probably just note the previous work experience without going into much detail. That an OK idea?

Any advice would be most appreciated.

At the risk of sounding like a dick, it's very boring. Like you opened up word, typed some crap out, saved it after an hour and didn't touch it again. From a non-technical HR standpoint, it seems like it'd be a bit brutal to look to at but enough "gibberish" on there to seem like passing on.

I'm not familiar with most of this terminology, but is it all relevant or are some things sort of the "I'd hope you wouldn't apply for this job without knowing this" stuff -- essentially make sure none of this stuff isn't just "padding".

Clean it up a bit and add work experience and I'll get back to you. ;)

Remove the logos. Also, remove the objective and summary, those belong in a cover letter, not on a resume. The rest of the first page should be the last page. Start a resume with your contact info, and next put your work experience, starting with the most recent. Add some style to it and you're on to something.

use columns and varied justification...
looks more like a bulleted list than a resume.
