I think people use these fonts on their resume partly out of the novelty value, and partly because they think it will help get their resumes noticed. While it certainly does that, it's a distinction that should not be courted, like going to an interview naked. You may be remembered but you'll never get the job. Online Layout More and more people are sending their resumes via e-mail and we encourage that. Standard formatting still applies.
Some people like to save their resumes as a text document within their e-mail.
This sometimes creates bad formatting and encoding errors. Most employers do not mind if you simply copy your resume into the body of your e-mail. We realize that the formatting won't always keep its integrity and when we want a perfect resume we will get it from you personally at the time of the interview. Paper Use a good quality paper, preferably bonded. Off-whites are often recommended because they stand out from the majority white.
