Have a 1 page CV (even less). Don't put there meaningless stuff (like Windows XP or Assembler or Pascal).
I'm not sure its practical Julian, May be true if the position is sales manager/grocery store manager or similar. I wish, I have one page of resume but, who cares ? Other person (HR)should be capable of noticing your capabilities from that page if not, we never get response for 1 page resume forever until its in hands of someone who can realize the value of 1 page.

To be honest with you, I wish I will have 1 page resume. But, doesn't make sense for HR, to have 1 page resume for a techincal person... There were situations people ask me to rewrite my resume cuz, it doesn't have SQL*Loader,SQL*Plus not mentioned anywhere ( True with Win XP too, if they are using Win XP)

Just it takes 1 page for you to mention the products you worked on if you are working on specific technology for a while....
