Designing your resume layout

Designing your resume layout by Juan P. Arnez

As a graphic designer (by hobby), I pay close attention to document layouts. The topic for this week concentrates on different aspects of writing a resume. Lets face it, we will all have to write a resume at some point. In the business world it is a must to have one, and like anything else that you present to your future employer - you WANT to impress them. I decided to brainstorm about a few options when selecting a layout.
  • Traditional, one-column resume layout
  • Two-column resume layout
  • Left-aligned resume layout
  • Centered resume layout
  • Indented resume layout
Many forget to think about such things. The end result could leave you with a well written resume that never made it past the first look - all because of a poorly designed layout.

    Juan, good information in this post in the future try in post earlier. Also you need to go back and edit the heading of this post and put your name along with your subject. Change it to Designing your resume layout by Juan P. Arnez. This is very important and needs to be done as soon as possible.

    Be sure and credit your source at the bottom of the post and put your name in the title of the post rather than at the beginning of the post.
