Updating Resume So close to degree...


Hello,

I am posting this question as I have more or less changed careers. I am a student at University of Phoenix, (a national college that has on-line enviroment and satiltes all over) My major is Business Management with a focus on Marketing

My folkes went through a bitter divorce that toar the family up a bit, and i ended up quitting my job as a loan officer a couple years ago. I took some time off and concentrated on school. About 8 months ago, I got into construction field, which I did some time ago. I am a project manager with my current firm, but they are losing a considerable amount of money and I as well as others are lucky to still have a job. My role is not a project manager any longer..but i love that job.

My issues are updating my resume to reflect my intentions and experience.

 

The two issues I face are:

 

1) I took about a year off of work and just went to school and used that time to heal personally.

2) I feel as if I look for work now (only 10 units away from my undergrad) I will hurt my chances of eting a good job. I will be done with my degree by July/August. What should I do on the resume? Say I graduated, or give a proposed grad. date (Which I feel employers will not care much for and I will not be rewarded compensation wise, etc)

 

What should I do?

 

Thanks.....
