Things to RememberResume should be one page.Keep it concise.

Unless you resume is for graduate school, or you have significantly more experience than others, your resume should be one page. You will have an opportunity to go into more detail on the cover letter, so be brief and concise. Order your categories making your strongest categories first. You can also collapse certain categories into other headings. For example, if you are on the deans list, that can go under Honors or under Education. This section can be set up however you would like; with bullets or in paragraph form.3
