You can't ignore it, Its 18 month, and if its an elephant in the room for you . . .

I agree with the below, if you can show some career advancing activities over the last 18 months that's going to be extremely helpful.


In your resume find a way to call more attention to the 7 years over the last 18 months. Sell the crap out of the 7 years, do some glorification of the 18 month roles.


Also maybe cover off on it a bit in your cover letter without making it look like you're working in the mail room


If you want me to do a review with you, let me know.
