Should I put my name on every page of my resume?

Where should your name be listed within your resume?
When naming your resume and cover letter file, go with your first name first and your last name second. Some hiring managers have a system in place that will sort candidates by their surname.
Is it OK for my resume to be 2 pages?
“Two-page resumes are the new norm,” says Vicki Salemi, career expert at Monster. “If your resume encompasses two pages, don’t overthink it — focus on the content on those two pages to make your skills and experiences shine.” And remember that while it can help to have a longer resume, it isn’t mandatory.

Have your name in a footer or header on every page of your CV and other application materials (View… Header and Footer). Also include page numbers. This way, if your materials fall and get mixed up, they can easily be put back together again.
Should I put a header on the second page of my resume?
Regardless of format, there’s no need to include a resume header or contact information on the second page. Save that valuable space for your work experience. Remember, it’s all about making your resume as readable as possible, both for the hiring manager and applicant tracking system.
Should I put my maiden name on my resume?
On the resume, you can use your first name, your “maiden” name, followed by your married name. When you meet anyone in the job search, you can introduce yourself with your first and married name, as it is your preference. If you have a name tag in any kind of networking meetings, I suggest you use all three names.
