Getting the intervieew is tough, and I'm with Lasereth, there is not one trick, but I don't feel a one page resume represents me. Something visually pleasing and easy to read certainly is key to catching someone's eye.
The biggest thing I need to work on is asking questions in the interview. Everytime I have had questions to ask, the interviewers interest seems to peak that I am actually interested in the company I hope to work for. The other thing I've noticed, is being honest. I've tried interviewing and acting like I know everything about the position I'm applying for, and reading up on things and pretending I have experience on those things I read when I don't. I've also tried just being honest "Yes, I know this, no, I've never dealt with that, can you explain it to me?" That seems to work much better than talking myself up.
