  > lots of 5 minutes resumes I think a lot of people didn't really need a resume before, their local reputation probably got them their local job. But now with the rise of remote work, you have to go through the "boring" task of making one. Lack of being in a position where you can see many styles of resumes doesn't help either. I understand why it's needed, but that doesn't make it any more fun, especially since all/most of the information is already on my LinkedIn account. So in the spirit of improving, do you have any specific do's and don'ts? How should a useful resume look? What should it contain? I'm directly interested as I've started building my first resume.
