[nycphp-jobs] Regarding Larry's Advice

Somebody who includes an entire multiple-message trail in his reply  
criticizes somebody else for being long-winded?

Anyway, in *my* humble opinion, outside the academic world where you  
need to attach lists of publications and conferences, Larry is  
exactly right.  A resume should be one page.  I know this to be a  
very common expectation among employers.  One page.  That's the  
rule.  You can make a complete portfolio available separately.  A  
resume?  One page.  Violate it at your peril.
