The purpose of the resume (or CV) is to get you an interview. So, how many pages your resume should be will depend on the information needed to help the reader decide if they want to interview you. That is why there is no magic number.

Networking can be a powerful tool as part of your job search strategy. If you haven’t already been consistently doing it, you really should start. But be patient. You may not see results immediately.
