There are two documents you want to maintain. One is a resume and the other is your CV.
The resume should only be 1-2 pages. These are typically used for businesses and industry. They should include your major skills, your job and education history.
The CV, however, is supposed to be a COMPLETE list of your achievements. It should contain your education, your job history, and every paper you're an author on*. Typical CVs also list the grants you've received, the awards you've gotten, the talks you've given, the conference abstracts you've written, as well as the engagement/outreach, and teaching you've done. Typically included is also a list of your mentees, their roles in your lab, and their outcomes (where they are now).
* IMPORTANTLY for your publications: separate peer-review (including in press), submitted, preprints, and in process. Do not mix these.
Edit to add teaching and mentees. (Sorry, should have included that. That's important.)
