I've met with a few resume reviewers and they've all had highly contrasting opinions on my resume, in addition to this post. One said one page, another said two. One said they wanted an exhaustive list (more than 6 bullet points), another said snippets, 3-5 sentences. It's become rather frustrating and I'm at a loss.
If it helps, they've both mentioned that due to my 15+ years of experience, and in leadership position, having 2 pages is unavoidable.
Do you feel like the parameters greatly depend on length of experience and types of work?
WOW, thank you very much this will be of great help to many people, I just read the post about resumes and it has clarified many things which I will change in the near future. But I have also found some doubts about it. The post is very much directed to people with experience and to the times worked with exact dates. But what happens when you have not yet managed to find your first job in the industry. Which strong points should you show if you don't have experience.
Very helpful
Thanks for the information!
