The following statements about resumes are true:

  1. Keep the resume length to one page - This is generally true, especially for early career professionals. However, experienced professionals with extensive work history may have longer resumes (up to two pages).

  2. Job experience should be listed in reverse chronological order - This is true. Employers prefer to see your most recent experience first.

  3. Use action words when describing your experience - This is true. Using action verbs helps convey your accomplishments and responsibilities more effectively.

The following statements are generally not true:

  • Job objective should be listed at the end of the resume - Typically, a job objective (if included) is placed at the beginning of the resume, right after your contact information.

  • References should be listed first in the resume - This is not true. References are usually not listed directly on the resume; it's common to write "References available upon request" or provide them on a separate document.

So the correct choices are:

  • Keep the resume length to one page
  • Job experience should be listed in reverse chronological order
  • Use action words when describing your experience
