maintain that order.
One page (ideal) or two.
Pro tip, add relevant keywords specific to the role, position or company (e.g. aws, azure, kubernetes).
Remember, more machines and algorithms will parse and filter your resume than human eyeballs (hint: if linkedin cannot parse your resume, reformat it).
keep a pdf, text and MS word version ready to be shared via email at all times (especially on your phone)
I added a passport size pic of myself on it to stand out from a wall of text no idea if it works, but it feels personal enough to me(ymmv)
Do NOT have any grammatical mistakes.
Name the file logically (e.g. 2022-resume-fred.pdf)
Share.

- nivenkos 4y agoI never add a photo because it can have you excluded from some processes e.g. government. The tricky one is citizenship - again for some companies it might get you excluded (though they should tell you beforehand), but it also helps a lot to show companies that you don't need a visa (that would often also get you excluded!).
