Two Page Resume

I just applied to many many Summer 2025 internships for my junior summer. However, something that I might’ve gotten wrong is that my resume was 2 pages. One of my business school professors reviewed it for a class and approved but I know it’s a big no no according to many others. How bad is it? To be fair, it’s basically a one-page resume with an added page for my extracurricular stuff and club leadership experiences. It looks tidy and there’s no unnecessary empty space. Regardless, I’ll move on to a one-page resume. I just wanted to ask how much it’ll hurt my chances at “high finance” summer internships.

I would either try to see if you can update your resume with a one-page resume or email HR and tell them you wanted to update your resume and attach a one pager.

 

It isn't ideal to be honest, some banks might see two pages and just automatically dump it because they don't want to read it lol. Just email HR and you should be good.

 

The advice I was given when applying to jobs at university was: "You can have a CV longer than one page once you've been the CEO of multiple FTSE 100 companies."

That was well over a decade ago, and my CV is still only one page.
