That's essentially what I do. First page is all I expect the interviewer to read. My resume is 2 pages for >10 years of experience.

I agressively delete unrelated skills and promote related skills based on the job description.

If you're writing your first page as a standalone thing though that matches what the posting is looking for, do you think you need to eliminate unrelated things on the remaining pages?

Yeah, I wasn't super clear about my scenario. I have a "all skills" resume and I pare that down for each job.
