How long should a resume be?
    #22269498 - 09/21/15 01:47 PM (8 years, 4 months ago)

I'm trying to type up a resume to work at some costume store for like a month, lol. The application online gives the option to attach a resume so I figure I oughta. The only thing is, I'm not really sure what kind of "qualifications" and shit I should include, simply because it's a pretty straight-forward and easy job I'd assume. I've worked at a handful of other retail stores, should I say that I have experience with stocking, as a cashier, nd like, IDK!? Because that's true, but I dunno, applying for jobs is annoying and confusing.

So, to work at some little costume store for a month, how extensive do you think an interview should be?

i try to keep it to 3 pages or less.

A good resume gets to the point but shows all details of your past work history.

Not sure how picky they will be in hiring, but if u list your sales and retail experieence in your resume, should be golden :thumbup:

Make sure u take your time to proofread your resume. Typos aare bad and will make u look bad.

They're looking back for 10 years.  If you've had multiple jobs, consider lumping by experience.  This past year, I've had several temp jobs. The recruiter suggested I lump those together since they've all been the same type of job.

Technically two pages, one as a cover letter, one as a resume.

Honest question: What do you think should be on a resume?

You do know what the purpose of a resume is, right?

I'm not even sure if OP is trolling or not. I actually hope he is.

No troll. He is really this inept.

Get a fancy template and fill it with bullshit like an intro to why you want the job and how your a hard worker. Say your good with computers and customers and some other bullshit. Then put your education and all past jobs.

Use nontraditional fonts and color paper. Employers dig that.

Also spray your resume with your best cologne, a la Alicia Silverstone in "Clueless"

Every resume should have a cover letter. Résumés' should be one page.

Easy.

Hell, I should tell that to my future employers. The little sluts will eat it right up.

Resume clear and to the point, Cover letter covers everything else; keep your resume simple.

I don't think you have to be too worried about impressing the people at the costume shop, probably would get hired regardless of if you have a cover letter or not; but it's a good thing to know how to do.

Sorry if this comes off as assholeish, but do you need the boards to hold your hand through your adult life? The general population is a bunch of junkies and burnouts who dgaf about life or being homeless. Simply put, you may get better advice elsewhere.

Best bet? A short cover letter (don't write your life story) and a one page resume. If I have to read 50 resumes then I'll take the heaviest ones and throw them on the bottom. You usually find polar opposites on the one pagers: complete fails or clear and concise people who can fit a lot in a small amount of space.

If you need 5 pages to tell me about 6 years of work, chances are I won't be able to tolerate you in my workplace.

Good luck :]

I'd never want to work for you anyway, princess. I would purposely attach heavy weights to my resume so you strain your hand when you pick it up.

Hey just busting your bits. People with extensive resumes need to submit a curriculum vitae if they're that important. Reading a novella to work in a mail room or warehouse typically won't bump you to the top of the pile. Unless it's one of those places that wants a personal essay about yourself but those are more for seeing if you can write a semi-formal and coherent document. Sorry if I hurt your feelings I didn't mean to I was just playing hoping to get a smile. :[

No worries, I probably wouldn't have weighed the resume down too much and if it strained your hand too bad I would have given you an ice pack.

I settled on a 2/3rds of a page resume, since it's for an entry-level retail job at a costume shop. It kind of baffles me that they'd ask for a resume at all. I made it pretty simple and to the point.

If the retail jobs were similar then list the jobs then put a space for experience underneath. Templates are great but if you can simplify it then why not?

Then take the individual responsibilities and ebalorate on them like a jackass.

It's because most jobs have a standard, unlike the pub. There's no standard here which explains your comfort posting.

Sadly, the pub is not real life. Thus your baffled at the resume request.

It probably would have come out being 9 pages if you actually knew how to spell.  Not Hired.

You don't have to list every job you've ever had.  Just list relevant experience, including school and/or professional affiliations (clubs/organizations), special accomplishments/awards that apply to the position you're going for, and any other relevant certifications, qualifications or skills you have.

He was literally like, "What am I gonna do?? Work at fucking mccdonalds?? who the fuck needs money???"

He was serious too. Dude's crazy.

that's like less than a page, so it must be utterly convincingly true.

I teach preschool at the moment, and I'm shopping my dance resume around to local studios.  Teaching dance doesn't pay well and it's hard to get in anywhere because the market is hella flooded.  Once I get in somewhere out here, though, I can start building my reputation.  Being an educator gives me an advantage in the dance teaching world, because the classroom experience and professional development broadens my understanding of the way people learn and what works best for different students.

Yep, my degree is in education.  I'm going back to school soon (within the next year or so) for another certificate.  I think teaching and learning go hand in hand; if I'm not doing both, I feel out of balance.

sounds like you're a natural.

who can learn something without also teaching people what you've learned, i mean, it kinda should be hand-in-hand, shouldn't it?

what's the point of learning if you can't spread that knowledge?

Thanks, and I agree.  Conversely, where is the sense in teaching without constantly challenging oneself to stay mentally agile and increase understanding of the things one teaches to others?

If you get an interview wear a costume to it. You will get bonus points for enthusiasm.

Why a costume store though? Why not apply to be a painter or something and make 3 times as much money without having to deal with asshole customers. Then you'll have another skill to add to your resume.

As concise as possible while still providing a solid idea of your relevant(if it really matters, unless you're solid in your career and have been for a little while, irrelevant work experience is still relevant.

I try to keep it to one page not including the cover letter. There are a million free templates online. Depending on the job you can go a little wild and do some really creative stuff(ideally if you're in a creative field, but if it's a costume store I think it would be fine to break from the traditional design), it's a risk and you better pull it off, but it'll make you stand out immediately. There are free creative templates out there that are interesting but still classy/professional.

But really nice quality paper will also make you stand out immediately and it's your safest bet.
