I noticed from your earlier posts that you are a fresh grad. A one-pager is your ticket since your experience is probably limited at this point.
There are a lot of people at my university who came in at entry level administrative positions and moved up to very high levels. |

I've had a bit better experience making a resume formatted as such:
Objective: (Bullshit about how my experience fits the job) Education: (My degree, with leadership roles in activities in smaller font) Experience: (What I've done in bullets, job explanation in smaller font) Proficiencies (Microsfot Word, Time managemnet, nonsense that fits the nuts and bolts of the job applied for) References: Available upon request

Depends on your field. Mine is 4 pages long now. Most of my peers are that long too.

Don't put that on a resume anymore. It's a given. No need to state the obvious.

Got a sit-down interview with it on my resume versus the dozens of rejections I got without it.

I've been reworking my resume, too.
My current one is one page. I passed it on to a buddy who was canned so he could use it as a template. He modeled his after mine and was told by HR people and recruiters that received it that his resume needed to be longer and more detailed. It's harder than hell to squeeze 16 years of experience on to one page (at least in my field). Never had an 'Objective' statement on mine. I'm redoing mine so that the resume holds all of the details I think the employer is looking for. I don't care how many pages it ends up being but I don't anticipate it going over two pages.

Pro tip: If you have AI write your resume or you're just copying and pasting from a job description.... FFS, at least take out phrases like "included but not limited to" and (FFS) "basic understanding of one or more of these technologies is preferred".

one of the things from my last (and prob future) job search is Column A Column B list something they want in an employee List how you have done that It is better than a list. It shows how YOU can help THEM and how qualified YOU are.

Bizarre from left field bump from a post 10 yrs, 6 mos and 29 days ago
I helped my son a few back with his resume. Thus, the thread has merit... |

Did you invite them to an interview?
"Hey, we finished reviewing your resume. Are you still looking for a job?"
