recruiters have told me that number of pages (within reason) doesn't matter.
they want a succinct resume that can be scanned easily
and quickly for information.
two separate sheets? make sure and put your name at the top of the second
sheet. the 2 pages may get separated.
1 sheet - i like this one - just make sure the paper is heavy enough so the
type of the other page doesn't show through.
always include a cover letter.
the cover letter will be your first writing sample.
