I’m a 2015 graduate and while in law school I did a lot of entertainment work. After law school I clerked for a bit before going in-house to do corporate work (2 years) and I’ve been at a firm doing corporate work since 5/2018. I’m updating my resume for an entertainment role. Any suggestions? Can my resume spill over onto a second page now?

The bias against second page resumes is dumb, but real. Keep it one page.

Agreed on one page. Your clerkship doesn’t need a description. Everyone knows what a clerk does. A second, representative matters sheet can also help highlight relevant entertainment matters...

Hi everyone. I’m new here but I think I’ll get a lot of really good feedback. I work in government procurement. I worked remote during the pandemic and now my manager cannot see his way to letting us work from home. Our department is the only one in the organization that is in the office all the time. It is really hurting morale and, personally, making me look for something different. What is everyone’s experience with old school management? Thank you!

Another option would be insurance companies that pay your American salary while working abroad.
