Do recruitment agencies keep your old resume?

[Anonymous]

I've done temporary work most of my life due to never getting a permanent job so I had to temp to get money.

2022 I got my first permanent role but now looking to leave because I don't like the way I've been treated.

On my resume for this current job I told a few white lies by just extending the time frame of the roles I had to not look like I had too many gaps.

I've got in touch with with an old recruitment agency that gave me some jobs.

Does the recruitment agency know you've made changes to the updated resume?

Is 10 year work history enough on your resume or can you shorten it?

Thank you

Recruitment agencies often keep old resumes in their database. When you update your resume, they can compare it to the previous version. It's advisable to be honest and address any inconsistencies professionally. As for work history, a general guideline is to include the most recent 10 years, but you can adjust based on relevance. Focus on showcasing relevant experience and skills aligned with your career goals.

Some of them probably do, but most certainly not all of them.
