Hello Community,
I need a help to review my Consulting Resume/CV. It's of 3 pages now for 15 years of international experience and I want a fresh eye to review/edit. Is there any service provided on this forum?.
Best regards,

Hey there,
There is no hard cap, however, 1-pagers are preferred.
How to deal with this?
My experience shows almost all candidates can keep the same level of information, however, can trim the content down significantly to fit on one page.
Happy to help you here. Reach out if you are interested.
Cheers,

Hi,
If it is 3 pages, I strongly recommend reducing it to just one. After that feel free to send

Hi Abdaallah,
Yes there is! Most coaches offer Resume + Cover Letter reviews!
Feel free to shoot me a message (in 1 coaching session w/ CV/Resume review I also get through cover letter AND a 3rd item of your choice)
Most coaches here will offer it as a coaching session so you have lot's of choice. My suggestion would be to choose someone who is familiar with your background both professionally as well as geographically and has worked at one of the consultancies that you are especially keen to join.
Hi Abdaallah, feel free to send it in order to understand how to synthesize it in 1 page leveraging all your achievements and experiences

You should definitely reduce the total number of pages to 1! While taking out certain elements, make sure that your overall resume highlights a broad variety of skills and experiences - the same broad set of skills that is required in consulting.
Hi Abdaallah,
Two pages is okay but 1-page CV is best.
Hello!
I would advise you to cap at 1 page.
If you need more space, phrase it as an Annex.
Hope it helps!

Hi Abdaallah,
Your CV should highlight your best achievements in education, work experience, project, skills etc. Try to reduce it to 1 page (two is max but not recommended) and feel free to send. Happy to help.

Whilst the general rule is 1 page, it's better to assume 1 page per 10yrs of experience so you should be fine to go onto 2 pages
Happy to take a look at your CV if you DM me
Most personal fit questions will cover the reason for consulting itself, why you intend to work for this specific company and finally your personality.
Why did you decide to study (major/minor)? How was your boss at (work)? What did you like and dislike? Why do you not want to continue to work for (work/internship)? Explain the thinking process that went into making the decision to do (passage in the CV)? Have you convinced a team to work on ... Open whole case
