Would an employer really read through all this?

Max I ever made my resume was 2 pages. Good to have breaks between the different topics and accomplishments. Also, try to make each resume personalized to the company you are applying for. I only gave in my resume to 3 places in my life and ended up working for all 3.

You have to be careful on over doing it all. Most people make up their mind about you in the first 5 seconds, so make sure the opening is the best. Personally i have it as personal details, experience, education, volunteering, qualities and hobbies. But each to their own.
