I'm well aware of what mechanical turk is. Indeed, I've used it before.
It's offensive to imply that people with 1-page resumes just had it generated via mechanical turk. I've spent hours perfecting my resume to have a good layout and clear copy so it could fit on 1 page.
You really need to adjust your value system. Writing a short resume is harder than writing a longer one. In fact, I have a 4-page "master" resume which I pull from to build my 1-page version.
> There is no offense intended in these statements :/
Of course there is. You don't call skilled professionals "kids" unless you're trying to be offensive. Don't play dumb.
