The Entertainment Community Fund Career Center’s managing director Elena Muslar has seen entertainment workers sometimes react to difficulties like these simply by omitting their experience in the business, creating gaps in their résumé. Muslar recommends instead that the ECF Career Center’s participants tailor their descriptions of past experiences to whatever field they’re looking to enter in their résumés. Rather than leading with, “I’m an actor” who will need time off, for instance, she suggests a performer could describe themselves as a kind of entrepreneur.
