Enhance the content of your resume
with a professional presentation. It is important to please the
reader's eye. Short narratives work well in summary statements
while bullets, keyword phrases, and highlights market your skills
in an effective manner. Complete sentences
are not necessary. Market yourself with action verbs, careful use
of white space, and emphasis on indentation. One-inch margins and
a balance of content in the body make your resume more readable.
Be consistent in all resume design, text, and punctuation
decisions. Be professional.
Key points to remember. Use a
readable font rather than one that is decorative. Maintain font
sizes between 10 and 14. White is still considered the best choice
of paper color. Avoid unnecessary graphics and shading. Use laser
printing on high quality paper. Make sure photocopies of your
resume are clean and sharp. Never handwrite your resume.
