Resume/ Cover Letters
0 I am in need of advice on how to make my 2 page resume down to 1 page. I have a lot of Customer Service experience (20+years) which have been in retail, hotel/resturant and call center . I have also had experience in the areas of management within those fields. I am in need of some advice to combine all of the experiences on to one page. I am also needing direction for cover letters in varrious forms (ie newspaper ad, internet, mail, faxing) I am now just asking for assistance (yes I know I am stubborn) because I am tired of having "a job" and not a Career. Thanks in advance for you assistance and suggestions. 02 br

Hi Steve
I am pretty sure you could get your resume down to just one page. I have done it many times before.
It all depends on the position you are applying for, and what is necessary for that position.
Most people tend to load up a resume/cv with the kitchen sink which is absolutely unnessary. I advise everyone to not have a "one size fits all" resume. Lots do, but you

Hi,
You certainly don't want to fill your resume with a lot of uselsss detail. However, in my experience, two pages is a normal length for a resume. It's not excessive.
Best wishes, Clive
