what color should my resume be
Color. The color used for a resume matters, almost more so than the weight. Traditional resumes are typically white, off-white, cream or light gray. Many argue that having a color that is slightly different than white helps a resume to stand out in a large stack of papers. However, if you are applying for a creative job, such as a graphic designer or advertising account executive, it might be more important to stand out through creativity in color choice.
