Multiple recruiters have told me two is perfectly fine, but after enough armchair experts online yelled at me to make mine one page every single time I posted for advice, I gave up and cut it to one. Better safe than sorry.

Depends on where I send the resume to, as I adapt to every company. Some versions have 1 page and some 2 pages. I have 12YOE.

Mine is always 2 but I’m in a tech heavy field so i have a bunch of stupid crap i have to put on it to get past the resume filters at companies. If i wasn’t and had a good amount of experience I’d go with 1

The only content I accept on a second page are publications.

Hi folks. I need to prepare for se3 position for Google . I have 45 days time, please help a fellow techie of how, what and why🥺🥺🥺 Google

I applied for a Director Learning and Development (L&D) role at McKinsey about a month ago via a referral. About a week ago, my McKinsey employee (who referred me) received an automated email saying that I had moved to the pre-screening process of the recruitment process and that I'll hear from the recruiter shortly.

It's more than a week now and I haven't heard back. Can anyone shed light on the process -- what to expect, timelines, what is the interview process like, etc.

Thanks!

Toronto banks: remote or not? They sometimes post jobs where it doesn’t say it’s remote, but no branch/ location/address either.

So, if you work at TD, Scotia, RBC, could you let everybody know in the comments what’s the deal for each? Are you remote, on-site, hybrid of some sort?
