If you are an experienced clinician and you were taught to write a CV, this one is for you.
Rotations, fellowships, every certification, every committee. Eight pages, exactly like your program told you. Then you upload it into a hospital's applicant system and hear nothing back.
We see it from the other side. Long resumes routinely do not make it through ATS systems intact, and the people they belong to never find out why. You did what you were taught. The modern system was built for a different document. Nobody is at fault, which is the good news, because the fix is the document and not you.
Two pages that show who you are today. Everything else can live on your CV for when someone asks.
