Any feedback from anyone on number of pages in a resume: 1 page vs 2 page (which one you would prefer and why). I am applying for managerial roles at big4 and have 8 years of experience.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts.

How important are references on a resume? I'm still at the agency I started at out of college so all my references would be people I work with now...who I don't want to know I'm leaving yet.

Twice now I have been ghosted by hiring managers after my initial HR screen. It’s really got me feeling like shit.

I'm having two 2nd-to-last rounds for non-G FAANGs this week, but I haven't heard if/when I am advancing in interviews for 2 different roles at G that I last interviewed or phone screened for 2 weeks ago.

I work as an AGM in a busy restaurant. Been working there for just over a year, and haven't had a single raise. I now only make 0.50 cents more than even the lowest paid shift lead but I am doing a lot more work. I'm no longer satisfied with these conditions. Should I try to negotiate a raise or look for other opportunities?

If I should negotiate, any tips?

What are the best “marketplaces” for consulting freelance/gig work? I’m familiar with BTG, Catalant, and Toptal, are there other leading ones to think about that pay former consultants for project/staff aug type work?

Which burns bridges less with an organization you’re in interested in, but for which the timing isn’t great? (Con’t)

🐠, need opinions/advice. Persistent recruiter asked me to consider having an exploratory convo with a company for a VP role even though I’m not looking to make a switch. That casual convo has morphed into two interviews this week, one with an SVP and EVP and one with the global head of the practice. It would be a $65k bump in salary. Worth going through with it? Should I mention that I’m not actively looking to leave my current job? Been here 6 months…

I interviewed with a top big law firm last week for a Senior Project Manager role. I felt fairly good and confident post the interviews. Sadly I was not given the offer. I remember the Director mentioned that I was over qualified for the position. I’m currently a Consultant… I’m guess I’m not sure how to take the “over qualified” response. Prior to the interviews, I felt I needed more experience …. Lol. Anyone else felt the same?

Anyone at Spotify that can speak to their experience, saw a position this morning that aligns very well with my background and future goals.

Thoughts on product strategy @ FB?

Received an external offer in a customer success role. Overall TC is slightly lower than current salary. How would you negotiate? Help and advice is needed - never done this before. Base+Bonus 210K, RSUs 90K, Sign on 15K. Where can I get more and what makes sense? Current TC is ~250K

How long do y’all like resume bullets to be? I know to keep them to 1-2 lines and to keep the resume to 1 page but I’m conflicted about how to balance details vs white space. I’m in product and see some resumes with bullets averaging 5-10 words that state “Manage roadmap for $200mm product” while others use ~20 words per bullet and highlight product info, process, or impact in a bit more detail.
