 KEEP IT SIMPLE

• Unless you’re applying for a arts or design roles, always use a clean and simple layout.
• Use clear section headings, which will make them stand out with bold type, capital letters, and/or a different color.
• Make sure there’s plenty of white space, don't overstuffed your resume so it's not too hard to read.
• Avoid all those fancy graphics, charts, and images that could interfere  with resume-scanning software.
