Including relevant volunteer work and foreign travel experiences can set Chen apart from other job candidates and increase his chances of getting an interview. It is better to have a comprehensive resume that fully showcases his qualifications rather than trying to fit everything in one page at the cost of leaving out important information. However, it's important to ensure that the extra information is presented in a concise and clear manner so as not to overwhelm the reader.
