Lori -

I have heard in the past that you should keep a resume at less than 2 pages - and more than likely 1 page should suffice.

In my case - keeping it at one page would only allow me to list about my last three jobs (all in the military of course since I'm getting ready to retire )

My question is - should I just list my last however many jobs I can fit and keep it at one page? Should I pick and chose which jobs I list that would highlight my accomplishments in the military - and focus more on the flying billets or a job that I might have had outside a flying billet that shows some management or leadership experience (showing a more well rounded individual) - but this would leave a gap of time in my work history?
