I came across a reading titled “Does a resume have to be one page long?” a question from a person named Stymied to Anne Fisher regarding on how long should a resume be. Stymied stated that he/she has seen a recruiter who asked Stymied to fit the resume into one page. Stymied tried but found out that would leave out a lot of information.
Anne’s reply was that it is a strange thing for an executive recruiter asking for only one page long resume. She also stated why according to a survey, which showed that recruiter willing to spend more time reading longer resume so that they can justify the application.
My thought is that a professional resume, in my opinion, should have at least 2 pages. That will allow one to have enough space to introduce his/her-self and why should he/she be qualified for the job.
