@Umar Talib

when you say they "included" their masters thesis... you mean some type of an abstract right??

multi page resumes are a norm when one applies for a job in academia or management consulting, and hence, there's a difference between a resume' and a CV.

I maintain a 3 page resume' while my CV spans 12 pages and growing! - it includes a listing of the publications, community service highlights, speaking engagements, teaching credentials etc.

Excellent information.

If you have less than 5 years of experience, then I don't think it should surpass 2 pages. Even after 5 years, I would crunch everything and keep it at 2. But depending if you have tonns of good exeperince, then maybe 3 is alright.
