10pt font
I don't disagree with your comments about a one page resume, but I wonder about the 10pt font. I realise this is still a pretty standard size but, I have a number of customers with vision problems. 10pt is a bit too small for their eyes. They find it aggrevating to pull out a magnifying glass just to read a resume. When they look through resumes, the first thing they do is put resumes they couldn't easily read on the bottom of the pile. If no-one meets their approval then they go to the "mini" resume pile. Also, anyone with a font smaller than 10pt is automatically trashed.
