Including too many colors, highlights, bold fonts, etc., usually make your CV look more distracting and appear unprofessional (screen record). 

The way your resume is presented impacts your first impression, and it’s imperative that it has a clean look & feel. 

Not only that, excessive use of colors and highlights can make the CV visually overwhelming and distract the reader from the actual content. 

If you find that you need to constantly emphasize certain content using bold fonts, italics, and underlines, it’s a pretty clear indication that you have too many irrelevant details in your CV that should not be there. 

Instead, consider removing less critical details and leaving only the essential information so that most of your CV will shine.
