Ironically there's been no dedicated thread to this. So I thought it would be a good idea to initiate one to discuss best practices about Font/Margins/Length/ECs/what to put and what not to. Please feel free to share your ideas and information. I am personally trying to bring mine to 12pt / 1.0" margin but it is getting extremely tough.

Edit, edit, edit. Use action words. Define achievements with tangible values (reduced costs by x%, process time by x days, saved one FTE...)
It has to fit to a page. There is no way any MBA student should not be able to get their resume to one page. If it needs jobs to be dropped at the bottom, roles to be grouped more - whatever, get it to one page.
Especially focus on the "hangers" with two or three words on the next line. and Edit.
Don't include everything about the item - leave people something to want to ask questions about while being impressive, rather than being so clear on what it was they are simply absorbing data.
on a personal tip...
Don't put interests including crochet knitting, fine wine and cheese or stuff like that or I will never interview you.
