About references -- it has always been my understanding that you don't need to put "references available upon request" on a resume because, duh, references are always available upon request. If a potential employer wants references, she will ask for them.

I'm sure everybody knows this, but just in case, make sure your references know that you're listing them as references, and make sure that, to the best of your knowledge, they are going to say good things about you. I have had friends who have been (1) caught off guard by being called as a reference when they had no idea that they would be, and (2) irritated when people they don't particularly like and have never worked with have listed them as references.

And yes, especially if you are in or recently out of college, a resume should NEVER be more than one page.
