I’m interviewing for final round of the entry level area manager position at Amazon. I’m working on multiple stories related to the leadership principles. Can anyone provide me some tips regarding the role?
There are 16 leadership principle and I’m thinking of creating some stories around each but the thing that concerns me is what if the questions they ask are related to the same principle and I might have already used up my stories. Something like that. Can anyone please help? Amazon

Your title is senior economist so I'm assuming that you have a lot of academic research? In which case I think that may be fine to have 3 pages...
Assuming that you don't likely don't have the same experience, but I remember Larry summers has a 10 page resume. But he's Larry summers...
Nope. 2 page max.

USA = 2 pages max
Rest of the world = CV = 3 pages or more depending on profession
No one is going to read more than a page. Truthfully, you have someone’s attention for about 45 seconds before they decide to move on or not. Say what’s most relevant to the role you’re applying for.
I find there's something inheritly classiest about 1 page CV. Like ya if you went to big schools it works
I don’t understand how it’s classist… honestly curious about why you think that but IMO it’s not about where you went to school. It’s about crafting something compelling yet concise because no one wants it to take 3 pages to decide whether you might be a fit. I’m sure you (and most professional folks) can fill up pages upon pages with the great work they’ve done but a resume shouldn’t be that detailed.

Two to one page 📄. One page is highly recommended.

If you’re going for a fed government position, it’s fine.
Everyone else = 2 max
