Just wanted to second this. It really depends on your velocity -- 6 month consulting gigs or 5+ year stints with a single company. After five or so years of short-term consulting for example you&#x27;re looking at 20+ entries for work history alone, not counting mentionable side projects, service, other items. And you&#x27;re a tech candidate so it&#x27;s got to be keyword-optimized. Recruiter X wants it in MS Word, employer Y wants it in their proprietary ATS, employer Z you have direct access to the devs and can use the LaTeX &quot;secret handshake&quot;. Then the anonymized HTML version for your blog, etc. So you get this explosion of formats and, if you edit each format manually, a quick resume update can take all day. Let alone a redesign.
