Whats up with the “2-page CV” status quo?

2 page CV status quo

Yep, that old guideline I’ve always had an aversion towards for decades biw. Are we even paying attention? Who prints CV’s these days, and why are we stuck with constraints from the printing era?

During my career, I’ve had to review innumerable CV’s. For so many decades that I still remember when the department was Personnel Management, then People Management, and the latest iteration under Talent Management. It did help that I’ve worked with clients from the Recruitment industry as well as Organisational Design and HR Change Management consultants.
