Good day,

I have an interest in applying for pilot positions in Asia, specifically in Hong Kong/China, since the country is more or less my ancestral home and I do have family and loved ones over there.

This said, I am not yet familiar with certain expectations and processes overseas. One question that I have been having is what should the length of my CV/Resume be?

I am an ATPL from Canada. Here in Canada, the expectations for pilot Resumes tend to be no more than one page, else employers start raising eyebrows. Does the same convention apply in HK/China or even various areas in SE asia?

You may be disadvantaged with only 1 page as many people I know do 2 pages allowing them to write more about themselves.

But remember Quality not Quantity.

Quality speaks for itself if you have it, one page.

However, if you haven't, two, and spin some bull**** to look good.
