Sometimes it is hard to put everything into one page. A lot of recruiters I've had the pleasure of talking with said that as long as it wasnt longer than two pages, you were okay.
Cover letters are hit or miss. Some dont even bother looking at them, and others wont look at your resume without a cover letter.
Good luck!

Really depends how much you have to put on it. If you are eighteen, your experience will be minimal, but employers want to see what your interests are as well as your work history. it is all to get a grip of you as a person. are you reasonably intelligent? (can read, write and spell?) reasonably stable (don't carry weapons or have a criminal record) interested in helping people, making things, even painting your warcraft models is good because you have manual dexterity and patience. So all in all it depends how interesting a person you are. Two pages for an adult with five years work experience is about average. Try not to go more than two pages anyhow. Of course if you are under twenty years and able to produce one at all these days, you are a winner. Bon Chance!.

Two pages....no more. That is space enough to throw out your "thunder" without boring the reader. Most employers do not have time to sit still and read several pages of things that YOU think he should know. Be very precise and to the point.
For example, if you put anything about typing skills.....Say that you type xx words per minute. Don't eloborate about how you took typing in school and have a computer at home. Speaking of computers.....just say that you are very knowledge of computer programs and you can quickly learn new ones. A person don't need to know squat about a computer......just how to operate the programs your new employer will task you with. Short, precise and to the point. Good Luck. Pops

It depends on what kind of career you are pursuing. If you are a doctor with publications, you'll want to add the titles, locations and dates of publications. If you have limited experience, one page will suffice. Bear in mind that employers look at dates of employment.......so if you have 10 jobs in 4 years, you may want to condense it to one page. You can go to a local department of employment and training center and get free resume help.

normally 1 page. You should be able to summarize yourself in page. A long resume discourages a reader from looking at it.

More and more resumes are 2 pages. I see hundreds of them a week it is my job to review resumes for our company.
I will tell you one thing for sure spelling and grammatical errors get noticed quickly!

As short as possible. More than two pages is unnecessary (in most cases) and many reviewers will automatically toss the longer ones without even looking at them.

Two pages. One page makes it look like you have no experience in the work world, while three or more is too cumbersome for an employer to bother reading.
