Basically I'm pretty sure any job-seeker would ALWAYS use a 1-page resume without exception. I've been told... "if you won the Fields Medal that's great - be sure to list it on your ONE PAGE resume."
I'm a former academic so I'm used to writing multipage CVs in LaTeX; as I move to create a business resume I'm wondering:
A. Is a 2-page resume just automatically bad and send the signal that you don't know what's going on? Obviously Ive accrued a lot of 'stuff' that I might want to list, but much of it is NOT directly relevant work experience.
By not including it though I look a bit disjointed on paper.
B. Can I EXCLUDE a graduate degree? I think it seems incongruous as I'm applying for entry-level positions that normally target UGs or very recent UGs. I'd prefer not to even talk about my un-related grad degree if possible, but there will be a 2-year gap in time if I just don't mention it.
Obviously resume-anything has so much advice from so many people it's increasingly useless, but my personal take is: CVs include absolutely everything about you you'd like to put on paper, and resumes are 1 page (often with exclusions and time gaps) that explain why you're relevant for the stated employer and what you're 'offering'.
C. I use LaTeX to write my CV and produce a PDF - this is ok right?
