Happy to provide a referral!

My resume was 3 pages.
More than 1 page is fine.

like

D1: did you apply after PhD too?

like

1 page. Be selective on which experiences show intellectual curiosity, collaboration, and analytic skills, and list hard/technical skills and interests/public engagement

like

6-8 seconds of viewing from resume reviewers, think strategically and be calculated.

like

Also important to note: consulting companies likely care way less about your publications, teaching, conferences…than academia. So you can probably cut a lot of pages there

like

Make sure all the most important parts are on the first page. Then throw out the second page.

like

Keep it to one page.

1 page 📄

like

1 page is pretty much the rule, but you do you, it'll get looked at just the same. Make sure everything impactful and relevant is up front.

like

1 page if you have less than 8-10 years of work experience.

A lot of things that are coming on a PhD CV you can leave off, such as the articles.

That's helpful, thanks!

Keep it to 1 page unless explicitly told by recruiting that multiple pages are ok

like

I transitioned from PhD background! Keep it to 1-page, no one is reading the 2nd page

What level?

Yep

The thing is that I don't have industry experience but lots of research and teaching experience that I thought I could sell instead

What’s your advise for someone looking to get into soft IP litigation (not an engineering / science major) but have been working in L&E for 3 years now. I want to make the move, but feel like my background makes firms not want me. I’ve applied to a few places but don’t get an interview.

HR agreed and told will fast track your bgv .
Now the problem is they released offer for 11thJuly saying will preponed in case bgv finished early.
