CV tips | Get a job | National Careers Service
The rule of thumb is that a CV should be no more than 2 pages long. If you've a lot of relevant experience at a high level, however, you can go over 2 pages. If you're just starting out in your career, 1 page is fine. If your CV goes back a long way into your work history, make sure the information is relevant to the job you're applying for.
