I work this company for more than two months right now. I am think about to look for an other job, should i put this position down on my resume??
On the offer letter my title as Financial Analyst but on my first day of worked, the mananger decided put me on Coporate Accounting group instead on Coporate Finance and reporting. and the manager never gave me a new title. I do not know what should i put down as my title.
I do not want to put down the wrong title, then later on when other company call my current employer for what's my position, if the title is not match up. they will think i lie on my resume

You can do one of two things. Put down the title "Financial Analyst since that is what your employment contract says but list the duties that you have done eg:
FINANCIAL ANALYST
* Prepare accounting reports for....
* Implement systems, policies and procedures in......
*Supervise 10 accounting staff....
When in an interview you can explain that your title was not changed for the requisite job function if and only if you are asked to explain.
On the other hand you can just go to HR and ask them to redo your contract letter of employment to reflect the correct title. If I had to choose, I would choose the latter and failing that I would resort to the former suggestion. All the best!

if you do put it down you might be considered a job hopper. if you dont, youll have a 2 month gap in your employment.
if you do decide to leave, do so for somthing that is CERTAIN! do not leave after two months to begin a new job hunt. If you really dont like your work, talk to your manager and tell him that your unhappy. Be calm and respectful... and do this in person, never through a memo or phone call. Do not give any indication that you may want to leave the company. Tell your boss that you love the company and feel its the right place for you... just not the right job for you.
If that is a dead-end, wait a decent amount of time after this and put in for some vacation time. While at home begin sending your resume around use the vacation time to interview. If you land a job, come back from vacation and give your two weeks notice. If not... you didnt lose anything except for some time on the beach.

One page always! You have to get your resume down to one page, but that doesn't mean it is general. You need to be direct and to the point of the job listing and the company. A resume only gets skimmed so it needs to be to the point and dynamic so it stands out and shows you have the education and experience for the position. Make sure it is clearly written and has NO typos. Have it looked at by as many people as possible who have experience with resumes and take all advice to mind even if you may not agree. Take resume classes at your school also. People who review resumes for jobs are very picky.

Definately put the company in the resume. Most company like to think that they are poaching the best candidate from an organization.
My friend work for a month in this great organization and she happened to get an interview in another better firm, when she presented her updated CV, the employer was impressed by her ability to get that job despite the fact that her educational background was limiting and got an offer right away.

Yes, include it but on the dates put '2006 - current'. This means you are currently still working in that role...
Financial Analyst is fine to list as your title. Many people working in Corporate Accounting Groups have the title Financial Analyst. Remember too that each company names their titles and departments pretty much any way they want.... It's more important what your job duties are than what title you use....

Yes I would put your current job down on the resume. And I would put what YOU feel is the most accurate title. If they do call your current employer, it's usually only after you've had an interview and they're seriously considering hiring you. In that case if they ask you about your current job in the interview you'll have an oppourtunity to explain the situation.

Put down the title for the job you did, when a future employer asks your reason for leaving the last job, say that shortly after starting the job you where moved to another position that you did not interview for.

I wouldn't put a 2 month job on your resume unless you have a good reason why you are leaving. If I saw that on a resume, I would be nervous about the candidate. Why are you leaving so soon? Would you do the same if I hired you?

First off, yes put down your current employer. Because even if you don't put it on your resume, you will have to put it on your employment application.
And secondly, put down the title you ended up with.
Good luck!

I wouldn't unless:
A.) You have an strong reason for leaving, and
B.) The job was a step way above your last one.
Other than both of those instances being present, I would avoid mentioning it.
