It definitely depends on where you're applying but the Career Services Center at my school has pages of employer listings that request one page resumes. Businesses don't want to take the time to read through your 2 page resume that includes every single club you joined and every project you ever joined on. Included the important, relevant stuff.

I am a graphic design student and have been in at a ton of different workshops and jobfairs and even my internship at Zimmerman have said not to get too wild with your resume. It is still going to have to be clean and professional to get the job. My biggest issue is the creative resumes.

It's ironic because i work at the career center in my school. Noone uses our servises except for seniors and people who need to desperately get internships and jobs. I do resumes and typically it is recommended to one page. I also do mock interviews. There are various sources where you can go to get a resume checked or references. First off try to see where your career services are and if they can review. If you go to a fashion school, they should most likely provide services VERY closely related to Fashion. Since i go to a mostly business-related school, most of our postings are business related. I would suggest that people who want to see what they can do to futher stand themselves out from other candidates to to their research on the company. hoover's online is good. vault, wet feet, and the company website itself. For the fashion world, they might ask you articles on the latest fashion and why you think that why. Sorry for the long comment =) Will continue to read your series!

It's pretty much standard on Microsoft Word now. If you use another program, I'm not sure how you do it, though.

On a PC you need additional software, either Adobe's or something else (no good at the PC stuff, no, heh) - there are freeware programs for it, if you Google "convert to PDF" or something. @ Elle – if you have a Mac it’s easy, just Print –> PDF in the bottom left corner, then choose save as PDF or whatever it says.
