Tips for Appealing Design
- Make sure your name is legible and set above the rest of the text.
- The address should be set apart from the text but not detract from the other information on the page. Place the address either at the top or bottom of the page.
- In order to make the resume easier to read, keep lines of text under seven inches in length. Limit paragraphs to under seven lines.
- Be consistent with section headings, punctuation and use of italics. There is no "right" style for this, but once you choose a style, stick with it.
- Choose fonts carefully and avoid flashy or wild fonts, even in headers or footers. If you think your resume will be scanned, use an easily readable font like Times New Roman or Arial.
