Google “one-page high school resumes for college admissions.” All kinds of sites and templates will come up. It won’t be the format itself that gets you in, but it will frame and present the info that you want people to know about you in a clear, clean, easily-absorbed-in-one-pass review by people who see thousands of these every cycle. No tiny or fussy fonts, no pushing out to skinny margins, no working to figure out what stuff means or finding unlike things in clumps. It’s got to be you on a plate, nicely arranged and worth looking at.
A site with “zety” in its name provides clear guidance and templates, among several. I’m with @MidCakePa - I’ve been a hiring manager and now consult in career transition as my third career, as an editor and writer of resumes for senior executives. It’s a similar process: candidates provide clean synopses of skills, abilities, experiences, achievements in a tight, pristine collection of words.
