Resume Format – General Guidelines
• The following guidelines follow typical resume format and business letter writing standards. These a general resume format rules:
• Font size of 10 or 12 • Perfectly typed with about a 1 inch margin (even if sending
via email, since it will likely be printed out) • Use only one font. You may vary size for emphasis, if
necessary. • Do not use different font styles. If you need to call attention
to something, you can bold it, but use this sparingly. • Avoid all-capital letters and italics as they are difficult to read.
• Thankyou for your attention!
