Advice for life

I am pretty involved with the hiring process for my department on campus. We get a handful of interesting applications, resumes, and cover letters. This experience has helped me understand more about what future employers will want in a resume.

Just a little life advice: don't have a 7 page resume.

No one will read it if its that long.

Sorry, but its the honest truth!

I learned in my MCOM class that it shouldn't be more than ONE page, unless you're super mid-career and have a legitimate reason for two pages.

Ha.

Also the people who put pictures of themselves?
Love it.
