If you have a 2 page resume whats the proper way to attach them ?

Question

no I mean to put the 2 together.
sorry for not making myself clear.

Answer 1

I have used a 2-page resume numerous times... I simply staple them in the upper left-hand corner. I think a 2-page resume works better for small companies or organizations... the larger companies use electronic scanners for words, and I'm not even sure if they would see your second page! My last 2-page resume landed me an interview and I got the job!

Answer 2

Two pages are fine, just don't go over two pages. Make sure that all of the most important information is on the first page, and continue with additional educational experience and such on the second page.

I presume that you're asking how to attach your resume to an email. That really depends on who you're sending it to. Some people want it as an attachment, and others do not. What I've done in the past to solve this problem is:
1. Write my cover letter in the body of the email.
2. Copy the text of my resume into the body of the email.
3. Inform the recipient that I've attached another copy as a *.txt file.

Using a *.txt file will eliminate most of your personalized formatting, but it can be opened on almost any computer. Good luck with your job search!

Answer 3

The only exception to the one page rule is in academia where the CV (curriculum vitae) runs as long as it takes to list all of the degrees held, publications written, classes taught, committees served on, etc.

Then I would use a staple or binding depending upon the length.

Answer 4

Tiff is correct.

However, if for some reason you absolutely have to put it on two pages, print on both sides of the paper rather than attaching another page.

Answer 5

The number one rule of writing a resume is restrict it to one page.

I'm sure you have a lot of wonderful accomplishments, but stick to the highlights. You can bring the rest up in the interview.

When all else fails use smaller fonts and margins.

good luck.
