In a resume, when referring to the experience acquired in an institution you used to work for, do you say PREVIOUS OR PRIOR institution

Hi Nsosaz

I don't think I would combine either "previous" or "prior" directly with the word "institution" in a resume.  

I might expect to see things such as these, for example:

- My previous employer was ...
- Prior to working at X, I worked at Y.
- At Institution X, I was able to apply and build on the experience I acquired at Institution Y.

I think if you post the whole sentence you want to write, we can give you better feedback.
