How long should my resume be?

Industry standards suggest keeping a resume to 1-2 pages. For most professionals, this translates to roughly 400 to 800 words. Executives or highly technical roles may warrant up to 1,000 words.

Why does keyword density matter?

Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) scan resumes for keywords that match the job description. If your core skills appear too infrequently, the ATS might rank you lower. Aim for your top skills to appear naturally throughout the text.
