I am an ebay trading assistant (E-commerce Sales Manager)
We have our home office and sell items on eBay for others…the whole process entails customer service, money transactions, eBay postings, shipping and handling, etc.
I am not sure how to place that in my resume if anyone else has been self employed and have written a resume.
I worked part time at home but now I would like to work full time or part-time and keep going to school so I need to add this to my resume instead of leaving a gap.
Thanks

I have a sole proprietorship and have listed it on my resume. Definitely list your company name and position on your resume. Add the job responsibilities and accomplishments that are related to the work you are pursuing outside of the home. Write it as though it is a job like any of the others you have on your resume. It sounds like you have plenty to work with.
Go ahead and list your accomplishments and responsibilities as an entrepreneur on your resume. For the job title, you may want to give it as Owner. When you describe your functions, explain it as you would if you were working for another company.
To achieve success with your resume, make sure it addresses the needs of the employer. i.e., use customized resumes instead of generic ones.
