How can you grab the attention of your potential employer? Simple—it's by having a comprehensive and effective resume format. Your resume can greatly enhance your chances of landing that dream job!
Usually, a resume is scanned between 10-30 seconds—it doesn't get a full reading the first time! So it's important that the resume must be easy to read with all of its sections organized well. To create such resume, use simple yet professional looking fonts (e.g. Seriff, Helvetica, Calibri fonts) and apply bold and/or italic font styles to guide your potential employer's eyes in reading the resume. Use bullets and graphics to emphasize the sections of your resume that need to be highlighted. Also, use headings and subheading to give your resume a logical format which makes it easier to understand.
