FAQ
Questions about this job seeker resume example
Short answers to what people ask before they send this resume.
Use this exampleOne page or two?
One until the content genuinely requires two — usually several years of relevant history. Length should follow what you have, not what you wish you had.
Which file format should I send?
PDF unless the posting asks for Word. PDF holds the layout; Word is what some applicant tracking systems still ask for.
Do fancy templates hurt?
The ones that break parsing do: columns, tables, text boxes, images and headers containing your contact details. A plain single column survives every system.
