Questions about CISSP endorsement process

analyst

Now that I've passed the exam, I'm looking at the endorsement process.

I have the following resources:

1. A hard copy letter from ISC2, given to me at the Pearson center.
2. An email from ISC2, which more more or less echos item #1, with one interesting difference (more on that below).
3. A PDF, which I downloaded from the ISC2 site using a link in the email referenced above.

And these are my questions/thoughts:

1. The Employment History section of the PDF I downloaded (item #3) is basically asking for the same information the email they sent me (item #2) says they want in my resume. Do they really want the same information twice?

2. The letter they gave me (item #1) says they only want supervisor name/email/phone for the last 60 months. The email they sent me (item #2) has no such stipulation, the implication being they want that information going all the way back to Day 0. Thoughts? Which should take precedence?

3. The last 5+ years of my career have been spent with the same employer and I've had the same HR job title the entire time. My immediate manager has changed a few times (I'm on my 5th manager) and my responsibilities change as frequently as the business demands, but it's all kind of informal. I have it all listed as a single job on my resume and LinkedIn. For purposes of the CISSP resume (whether a separate document or as part of the PDF), do you all recommend I split the job up into smaller components (some were more InfoSec heavy than others) or just list it as a single job?

4. Supervisor contact - I assume they want the current supervisor and not the guy I spent most of my time working for? The new guy has only been around a few weeks.

I think that's it for now. Let me know what you guys think.

Thanks.
