I rarely see CVs except for if I’m dealing with C-Suite candidates or individuals that come from or are in academia.

Everyone else IMO should be using a resume.

Ok I guess my question is more about length, CVs are known for being multiple pages where as resumes are usually 1. However, with the ATS screening I wonder if resumes are getting longer?

Keep your resume 2 pages or less. Easier said than done though depending on your seniority. Mine is 2 pages (and that’s after culling down as much as I could)

See I always thought they should be nicely designed, clean and 1 page but it’s good to know 2 pages is allowed

Should I get a CPA for Transaction Due Diligence?
I’m a new grad working in FDD and I’m trying to decide if becoming a CPA is worth it. I do not plan on staying in accounting in the future. I’m more interested in strategy work. I certainly do not want to do Audit. Would you recommend getting the CPA considering my career aspirations? Do you think it’s worth it? If not, what is the best way to use my time efficiently?
