Left-Align the Content<\/h3>\n<p>In general, you should <strong>left align your resume<\/strong>. Unless your resume template was specifically designed with a different alignment, left is the standard.<\/p>\n<h3>2. Maintain a One Page Length<\/h3>\n<p>99% of the time, it\u2019s best to <strong>limit your resume to one page.<\/strong><br \/>\nHowever, there are some reasons to break this rule. For instance, you might need a two page resume if:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>you have an <strong>abundance of relevant professional experience\u00a0<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>you\u2019re writing a management level or executive resume<\/li>\n<li>you\u2019re an academic with multiple publications<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>3. Use .63\u2033 by 1\u2033 Margins<\/h3>\n<p>After years of debate, our team of experts have come to a consensus on resume margins.<br \/>\nIf you have a normal amount of relevant work experience, give your resume\u00a0 <strong>.63\u2033 left\/right margins<\/strong> and <strong>1\u2033 top\/bottom margins<\/strong>. This combination strikes the perfect balance between making your resume look clean, while including as much information as possible on a single page.<br \/>\nIf your relevant work experience is either extensive or thin, you can play around with these numbers to fill out the page, or ensure it doesn\u2019t spill onto another one. Just don\u2019t get carried away, or risk your resume looking bizarre and unprofessional.<\/p>\n<h3>4. Stick to a Recommended Resume Font Style &amp; Size<\/h3>\n<h4><strong>Recommended font styles:<\/strong><\/h4>\n<div class=\"columns-list\">\n<ul>\n<li>Book Antiqua<\/li>\n<li>Georgia<\/li>\n<li>Lato<\/li>\n<li>Trebuchet MS<\/li>\n<li>Arial Narrow<\/li>\n<li>Garamond<\/li>\n<li>Calibri<\/li>\n<li>Helvetica<\/li>\n<li>Cambria<\/li>\n<li>Didot (for headings)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<h4><strong>Recommended font size:<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>While the best font for a resume is debatable, experts agree that font size <strong>shouldn\u2019t fall below 10.5\u201d<\/strong>or <strong>exceed 12\u201d<\/strong>. Some fonts look better smaller, others bigger, so experiment until your resume looks professional and readable.<br \/>\nAll the best.<br \/>\n[the_ad id=&#8221;1745&#8243;]\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A good resume format will help you highlight your marketable traits and downplay your weaknesses.
