I would keep to a page if you have 10 years or less of experience. I went to 2 pages after the 15 yr mark.

I also built a PPT deal sheet since I did PE DD consulting and did M&A at a portco. Easier than trying to cram it in to a resume

I did a short stint on jobscan.io and really liked it.
It’s paid and I got a 3 month subscription. It had literally been 15 years since I last had a resume

EarnBetter has been the best I’ve used so far. Free, AI option, automatic formatting.

I'm not in sales per se but I manage my company's largest wholesale account ($150 million per/yr account). It's a great company, awesome culture, good benefits, flexibility, but the pay is not great ($60K/yr). All the pros outweighed the mediocre pay, but now with inflation rising, my paycheck isn't going as far and I'm having a really hard time trying to figure out if I should start looking elsewhere or if I should ask my boss for a raise.
