## Frequently Asked Questions

**Should a marketing resume be creative?**
The content should be creative and metric-driven, but the format should be ATS-friendly. Save your creativity for your portfolio, not your resume layout.

**What metrics matter most on a marketing resume?**
ROI, conversion rates, traffic growth, lead generation numbers, and budget managed. Every bullet should have a metric.

**How do I show digital marketing skills?**
List specific platforms and tools (Google Ads, Analytics, Meta Business Suite) and show measurable results you achieved with each.

**Is a marketing portfolio necessary?**
Highly recommended. Link to your portfolio in the contact section. Include campaign case studies with before/after metrics.

**How many pages should my resume be?**
1 page for freshers and up to 5 years experience. 2 pages maximum for 10+ years. Never exceed 2 pages — recruiters spend 6-7 seconds on initial screening.
