10.2.2 How do you make your resume look good?
So you have all of your experiences and skills set up. Now how do you present it in a resume that represents you well and makes you look good to potential employers? There are some specific things you can do to make your resume stand out.
Formatting: You will want your resume to be clear and easy to read. You want the employer to be able to pinpoint any piece of information that he or she wants as quickly as possible.
Use wide margins to take advantage of space, but that does not mean you should fill every bit of space with wordiness.
Use a bulleted list to make things short, sweet, and easy to read.
Organize your experiences and skills into logical and clear sections that are marked accordingly.
Use bold and italic print sparingly but smartly to draw the reader’s eye to the information that you really want to highlight.
