Any more than that you're making them read too much. If you focus on your accomplishments and place them in the middle to beginning of the resume, it will give them a sense of who you are and what you've done without having to read too much.

Personally, I used to have my resumes be 10 pages long. Then I learned that they should only be 1 page, but I still prefer to use my 10 page resume even though I only have 3 months work experience in my life. Maybe that's why I haven't been able to find a job for the last 5 years... what do you guys think? Yeah you guys are offering great advice. Personally, I used to have my resumes be 10 pages long.

When writing a resume, I have been very successful because of the format presented. Short summary, insert a table with 6-8 proficiencies whether they are systems/software or such. Then go straight into accomplishments. This is where you showcase your talents. What you have accomplished. I personally stick with about 10. I then move on to Work history. This is where I write about 2 sentences then about 5-8 bullet points on my responsibilities. Honestly, I believe my accomplishement area is what sells me at all times. I get many calls and many compliments on the format. Keep it simple, easy to read and you will get bites every time. Dave, I believe what was stated above is truly accurate.

No, seriously, if you think you're writing too much, then you probably are...stay relevant to what the employer is looking for in a candidate.
