Ask HN: Resume and NDA conflicts?

2 pointsby solipsistover 13 years ago
When writing a resume, how do you avoid conflicts with any past (or current) non-disclosure agreements you may have signed?<p>I'd like to describe the general fields that the products I developed were in - although not more than a few words of description.<p>Does that sound reasonable?

Every NDA I've ever signed has had a termination date.<p>If you aren't past the termination date, then write down what you want to put and then ask if they would mind.

Talk to the company, but as a general reco if the products you worked on are publicly posted on their websites / marketing materials, it likely isn't an issue, as you aren't disclosing anything which isn't already public knowledge.

I would recommend you get in touch with the people with whom you signed the NDA with and clarify the scope and extent of the NDA.
