We all know how important writing a resume is. if you want to get a job that you really desired and where your skills perfectly matches with the working environment, you need to apply with that company and submitting a resume is one of the requirements even in any job applications.

Since applying for a job is like endorsing yourself that you had that something that is going to be beneficial towards the company, you have to write a resume that looks presentable in the eyes of your employer.

But it will be quite difficult in your part if you don�t know how to write an effective resume since there will a lot of applicants that the owner needs to accept. Besides, a lot of employers would just flip all those resumes in their tables and there will be less chance in your part that your resume will be accepted.

So you have to be more cautious on how to write your own resume. However, there are times that a single page resume is not enough to list all your personal details down. Longer resume can be a lot more complicated without the correct and proper guide on how to write it effectively. Usually a short resume is enough for applying a single job but it could be better if you will submit a longer resume.

Generally, career advisers will tell you to write one page resumes. It makes sense, too. The longer that resume is, the more time personnel will have to be spend sorting through it (even if you did use a writing software to fix up the quality). If you end up competing for a highly-contested position, there�s a good likelihood that your resume will be passed over because it�s too difficult to read.

Senior-Level Executive Positions. If you�re vying for a high-ranking position, longer resumes make sense. There�s a good chance you are among a limited pool of candidates, so more time will actually be given to your application. For such positions, you�ll need to list down a full relevant record of your leadership accomplishments, so they can best evaluate your managerial capabilities. Depending on the job, it usually makes sense to elaborate on your previous job responsibilities, especially since such high-level positions will entail carrying plenty of accountability.

Academic and Scientific Positions. A long resume is almost always required for these types of positions, as you�ll need to detail information on your educational accomplishments, licenses and published works, apart from relevant work experience.

Technical Positions. If you�re applying for a job that requires technical abilities, you�ll need to show qualifications that indicate you have the necessary expertise. The simplest way to accomplish this is by including a full record of your relevant technical training, experience and other endeavors. You may want to restrict it to a maximum of two pages, though.

Other Requirements. Some employers will require a second page, depending on the position. Similarly, if your relevant experience does exceed one page, don�t hesitate to extend your length. Just make sure to elaborate only on necessary items.
