How do shorten CV length?  Group your early career into one section.  Focus your previous experience with one-two bullets.  Use a short bio of a personal summary.  Use a Most Proud Of section to intertwine achievements with culture fit.  Choose an optimal font type – Rubik, Roboto, Calibri, and Lato take up less space compared to Arial.  Consider smaller font size – 10.5 p is still great for content, while headers can be somewhere between 13 and 15 p.
