Would a company care about a job that I had from 10th - 12th grade?

? Technical support for WinNT and Win98 users on network, including NT administration

that's basically what it was. i was just wondering because i need to make more room on my resume. if i remove this i can make it 1 page...
 
ive always thought the 1 page rule was BS, my resume since my sophmore year of college has had 3 pages and i havent had any problems find internships or jobs. if people throw it out then they are stupid. Just make sure it isnt 3 pages of garbage, if its quality stuff that is consice but still descriptive it should be fine.
 
Your length is always going to depend on what kind of position you're going for. They say you should tailor it to the specific position. The 1 page rule is more for when you're doing mass distribution of your resume at a career fair or something. In those situations you definitely want to go for 1 page.

However if you're e-mailing, faxing, or snail mailing your resume you don't have to worry about fitting it all on one page. If you've had enough relevent jobs on there without crossing a page, then leave it at that.
