    he keeps tweaking his resume, cutting it from 10 pages to two, then beefing it up to 24.

    I’m no expert, but a 24 page resume?! I think I found your problem bud.

      Seriously, wtf? Even some of the most extensive CVs I’ve ever seen from people with 30+ year careers still only top out at maybe 5 or so pages. I’m guessing this dude is trying to do what every first timer does and put literally every thing they’ve ever learned on their resume, every course with the syllabus description, every hobby, and just attaching the full job description for every job they’ve ever done.

      I have a 2 page resume, and can still fit every skill, my last 5 roles, and even any relevant hobbies or other things to “stand out”. There’s literally no reason to have a resume this large, and it’s going straight into the garbage.
