How long should my resume be?

Aim for 1-2 pages, depending on your experience. New grads can use a 1-page resume, while professionals with extensive experience may need 2 pages.

Should I include a resume objective?

In most cases, no. A strong resume summary statement highlighting your skills and experience is more effective.

Can I use a creative resume template?

Creative templates can be risky. Opt for a professional and readable format unless you're in a highly creative field.

What are ATS keywords?

Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) scan resumes for keywords in the job description. Include relevant keywords naturally throughout your resume.

Is it okay to include references on my resume?

No. Wait to provide references until requested by the employer.

Should I mention salary history on my resume?

Not necessary. In some locations, it may even be illegal for employers to ask.

How can I make my resume stand out?

Quantify your achievements, tailor your resume to each job, and use strong action verbs to showcase your skills.
