The first page of my resume covers my technical skills, a summary of myself, and my most recent jobs.
When you go past that, it gets to older jobs that are still relevant, then into school, then to side projects, volunteer, etc. basically, if you liked the first page, the rest of it gives them more about who I am.
I think at this point it's either 3 or 4 pages and every time I've gotten a job it's been one where they asked me about the hobbies on the bottom of the last page, which meant they liked what they saw and liked my interview well enough.
When I update it for my next search, I'll take my first internship off because it's no longer relevant, but most everything else is.
yeah. this sounds a lot like mine. I have what grade school I have at the end but don't expect anyone to go that far but its part of who I am. I don't expect anyone to go past page one necessarily but if they drop it in the trash because its four pages then I dodged a bullet as far as I am concerned.
