These guidelines are for the scannable version of your resume. For a Resume the Scanner Likes 1. Name ONLY on the top line. Address and phone numbers must be below your name. Graphically boring is better.
Content is what drives the scanner, so give it good content.
Plain Text Only. Say no to italics , bolding , and underlining, as these tend to make the letters run together when scanned. That gives the scanner gibberish rather than your skills and experiences. Choose a popular font. Choose a popular typeface, such as Times, Palatino, Arial, Universal, Helvetica, or Bookman.
