Squeeze Page Optin

I hear if you’re just getting out of college(graduated) or you’re entry level that you should have an 2nd page with your resume to include accomplishments and awards….but I have long history of employment. While creating my resume all my employment fited on the 1st page..but I don’t have enough room for my education and Certifications on the 1st page. I’m using the smallest font(10 size) so I don’t wanna squeeze it in and make the 1st page look unprofessional.
My question is……Is a 2nd page with education & certifications/Licenses good look for a resume(towards an employer that is)?

I’ll give you my standard answer. Your resume needs to be as long as it needs to be, but you must "make the sale" by half way down the first page, or the rest of it won’t get read regardless of how long or short it is.

If you have a long work history, and it is relevant, get it on the resume. One of the keys to a good resume is relevancy. It doesn’t matter how proud you may be of an accomplishment in your life, if it doesn’t relate to the job or your character for the job, it doesn’t matter.

The other key is presentation and readability. Hold the resume at arm’s length. Does it look right? White space helps. Resumes that are floor-to-ceiling, wall-to-wall words are difficult to read and may not get read for that reason.

Having said that, most of the resumes I’ve seen have been one or two pages long.

Hi
I am trying to design a squeeze page through dreamweaver but am finding it difficult to create a template - I already have the graphics - I have a boarder image which runs on the side of the page body and meets the header and footer. The problem that im having is that I can not get them to meet - it always keeps a small gap between the boarder image and the footer/header image. I tried to do it by using tables.
Any help would be very helpful

Yes I would certainly say that doing it through the tables is the easiest way. im not sure if this is the best way.

The way that I would do it is by adding a table with 3 rows and 3 columns. top for header - middle for body and bottom for footer.

The other 2 would be for the boarder images - Resize the table to your requirments and then merge the side cells so they flush with the header and footer. Kind of like designing a skeleton.

Add the images and you should be good to go

i hav to write a two chunk eassay about fast food n im stuck i ended up with lk 4 paragraph n im only at around 600 words on my second page n i don’t know how to squeeze all of that in to a two chunck essay
aalso how many paragraph total am i suppose to have for a two chunk eessay
also how many thesis am i suppose to hav

What in the blazing **** is a two-chunk essay? I’ve heard of a five-paragraph essay, but not a two-chunk.

Oh. I see. After Googling it I see we’ve reduced the five-paragraph down to four…an opener, the "two-chunk" middle grafs, and a summary.

Sigh.

Let’s start at the beginning…

A "thesis" is the whole idea of your essay, and it’s ONE central idea that you’re trying to convince the reader of, or informing them about. So your thesis could be "Fast food causes early death," or "Fast food depresses wages and labor skills," or "Fast food increases family time." Whatever. It should be stated in your first graf.

Then you put in two grafs to support your thesis. Use direct quotes from reference material and be sure to cite them with footnotes. (A) it adds more words, (B) it backs up your paper as more than mere opinion, (C) it shows you did some research and (D) if you don’t use citations but use the author’s words it’s PLAGIARISM and can get you in lots of deep…water.

Then wrap up with a last graf reminding the (apparently slow) reader (perhaps suffering from short-term memory loss?) of the great points you brought up, and why THAT makes your first graf true and unassailable.

You can’t stretch word count. You can stretch page count, but not word count.
