How longshould myresume be?
There is no universal answer. It depends on several factors:
• experience
• the industry
• the country where you’re applying
Having said this, single-page resumes dominate today’s job market. The reason is obvious. Since there is a higher demand on jobs than the supply, hiring managers have grown quite picky when select-ing potential candidates. If the first page of your resume doesn’t grab their attention, they won’t continue reading.
On average, recruiters spend around 6 seconds reviewing a re-sume. To improve your chances, you have to be clear and concise—keep only the most relevant information. You can always provide further de-tails when you get an interview.
On the other hand, if you have a lot to say and you absolutely believe it’s relevant, don’t squeeze it into a single page by using small fonts and sacrificing the layout.
