Default Re: Quick Question - Resumes

Definitely one page.

Condense number of places on this first hit. Best case relevant work experience is with last job.

Highlight skillsets, certifications, and other extremely relevant work experience to the job on hand.

On my resume I went from 17 years of sales management to teaching. I did not waste the prinicpal's time with sales stuff, but talked about my work as a substitute teacher, my years as serving as den leader for the cub scouts, and my years of coaching youth basketball.

Also, try to get as many interviews as possible, I'm great at interviews now because I've been through so many.
