REVISING THE RESUME
Once your resume draft is ready take a break before revising it, you may not recognize all errors and have a clear idea of what to improve otherwise. Once you are rested get back to it and check if it is exactly what you want or if there are things you simply want to change.
How long should your resume be?
It is really up to the type of job you are looking for. A resume usually has between 1 and 2 pages and it is very common nowadays you make your resume fit in one page only, this is usual when you are applying for a job and emphasizing in the aspect the employer will be interested in. A two-page resume is used when you want to add a lot of educational and experience details, mostly for more technical careers. A three-page resume is still used but not very practical or recommended.
How do you make room for more information?
By shortening certain areas that can be:
- Personal info details, such as name, address, etc. Just make the font size two points smaller.
- The headings can be bigger that the regular text but try not to make them too big, in case you need extra room reduce the font size and try by bolding all headings.
- Check the space between paragraphs and reduce it.
