I heard from a career coach that the resume can be longer now, that the old one page and two page limits were a thing 10yrs ago but nothing anymore.

No. 1 page. Being concise and highlighting the most critical / pertinent experience is a skill in itself

The only scenario for 2 pages I can see is MAYBE if you’re a senior partner but at that point, who is reading your resume?

like

You can do two. But it needs to be a full two

Interesting. Internal BcG career coaches say 2 pages - so looks like I’ve got to have both versions. Wish there was some kind of standard.

Is this bifurcated by industry?

Tech - 1 page
All others - 2 pages ok?

Why would you need two ? At your level , wouldn’t most of your interviews come in through alum referrals and the resume is just mire off a prop in the process ? Genuinely curious about this

I used two pager and just got a job with AWS

I’ve had decent luck with 2 pages, but I’ve got 17+ YOE and a couple industry changes.

I have 5 YOE in Analytics... always thought I wanted to be a DS, but every job (even the junior ones) required experience in ML development. Though I am part of the ML project, I'm not the person develop the model. And I have a hard time when the interviewer ask about how I develop the model and what hyperparameters I tuned. I know the thought process and stuff but 'I' wasn't the one who did that part in the project. How to convince them that I could do the job without taking credit of others.

Hi all, I’m in need of some career advice. Not sure where to direct my attention. I know that I don’t enjoy consulting, but I’m also fairly confident that I don’t like strategy. The things I enjoyed the most was getting into the customer’s head and figuring out what they value, which I think I’m pretty good at. I also enjoy working with others frequently and finding a solution together, instead of having individual workstreams. I can hold my own in front of a crowd as long as I’m confident in...
