Jon Frank: Please advise...

When preparing resume for MBA application, do I have to condense  the resume to ONE page? Is a two-page resume OK?

Thanks for your advice.

as far as i know, many schools require ONE page.

I highly suggest you check the website of your dream school. Maybe it will give the right answer.

Hey there! happy to answer this question for you. Ideally, yes, you should be able to get your resume down to one page.  At times, it is okay to have second page.  But typically, to “require” a second page is seen as a pretty bold statement.  That is, if you need a second page, you’d better have some great experiences to talk about!  After all, 75% of applicants WILL be able to condense their work into one page.  But two is okay, if absolutely necessary.  

Hope this helps, and good luck!
