You're applying for a new job as a database administrator. You're currently a software engineer, but due to layoffs, you've been performing most of your department's database-related projects for almost a year now. You want your resume to be taken seriously for the database administrator position.

What Do You Do?

Use the title database manager on your resume -- after all, you've been performing the duties of the person who last had that role.
Use your official title, software engineer, on your resume, even though it doesn't accurately reflect the database skills you perform each day.
Come up with a new job title altogether that better describes what you do each day. It's not your official title, but it delivers the message.
