Resume length - 10 yrs experience

[kellygreen]

I work in research & development for a manufacturing company, with 10 years of experience. I am in my 3rd role... do I still need to stick to 1 page?

DH just went through the job search... also 10 yrs of experience, all at the same company.
At first, we had a 1-page resume. Most of the people who reviewed it said that it should be longer/more detailed.
In the end the resume that got him the most interviews (and a job) was 2 pages.

Mine was 2 pages for similar years experience, but many different companies.

In my mind, 10 years is right at the point where rolling from 1 to 2 pages is fine.

Depends on how technical it is.

You might be able to keep it to 1, but I don't think anyone is going to disqualify you if it goes over a page.

If you want someone to take a look at it, I'd be happy to BTW

I think 2 pages is acceptable, but be sure to put what you absolutely want them to see on page 1

Is that the only role you've had? Job history should not go back any further than 15 years.
