How long is everyone’s resume? Mine is about two and a half pages but I know a lot of people have gotten theirs down to a tight one-page but I’m not sure what to cut out of mine.

I have mine at 2 pages. It’s professionally written. From fivver.

Two is typically the max, and that's usually reserved for upper management roles. If you're not sure if or how to trim yours down, I'd suggest hiring a resume expert to handle that for you. Totally worth the investment, and you can easily find a bunch of them on sites like Upwork.

Hi guys, After CAF completion by last week, yesterday I received a call from the HR for the second round of evaluation. So, I attended it yesterday and performed well by answering 90-95% of the questions. Even the interviewer gave good comments on my performance. But suddenly today I received an email that my candidature isn't suitable for the role and they're keeping my profile in the database. Does this mean they'll call me if there are openings with some other project?

Can anyone share their experience on mettl test in brillio. Regarding setup, questions and everything.

I'm lateraling to another firm because frankly I think the management of this one is terrible, but the people (and individual partners) I actually work with are awesome. I've only been here for about 18 months, so I imagine that short time frame will make it extra awkward 😬

I’m trying to pivot to PM after >3 years in finance and I have a 2nd round interview with CPO this week. Company has 3.7 on Glassdoor with complaints about CEO, “bro-y” culture, and hard to wfh. It’s a data analytics company with 5 PMs, was bought by a PE firm this year, and has a new (female) CEO as of Oct. Role is 50/50 hybrid, pays well vs what I make, and most importantly would be a foot in the door to PM. Is this a good place to be for PM? What else do I need to find out to know for sure?
