    Thanks for the feedback. I just redesigned it and I think it seems cleaner now. What do you think?

        Awesome. Thanks.

        Any cents on fitting all that on one page? I've asked a lot of recruiters and most recommend keeping resumes to 1 page. But I find it way too hard to mention most of my stuff without the resume looking cluttered.

          Go for 7-8pt body text size if you print on A4 sheets.

          Scale everything down a bit if needed.

            I'll try some smaller font sizes but Isn't that way too small to read?

              See the top post on this thread, the text is small on screen but perfectly readable when printed on A4. Just try to print yours before finalizing the design. Too big fonts make it look clunky (could be ok if you do a playful CV, but small fonts looks cleaner and more business oriented usually)
