A company called last week looking to get someone to do some corporate helpdesk/support tutorial/videography for them and wanted to know which textbooks I had recorded video for. This is something of a complex question, since A) I was never directly told which books were which, B) they lacked front pages and copyright notices at the time I was working on them, C) I probably signed a NDA at some point, D) I forgot to keep copies of the work I did, and E) at least one agent was told by the end client to not even tell me who I was working for (an action I do understand since I do have access to all the answers for their final exams). I've been able to find several books I probably worked on and at least one I definitely worked on, so how do you, Oh LJ hive-mind, suggest I reference them in my resume?

List the agencies you worked for and note they provided anonymous content.

Could you cite the NDA and offer a former supervisor as a reference?

Agreed. If you're on the phone or in person then the side anecdote about not knowing what you were working on since you'd have all the answer keys could be a good human, humorous icebreaker too.

So all the answers other than (D) are good parts of it. :)

Reference by name? No. Some vague reference to their subject matter, novelty, and/or popularity? Absolutely ("a top 5 high school geometry textbook" or somesuch).
