Guide to Designing a Resume with Microsoft Word 2007®

Designing a Resume

Below you will find two resumes by James Sistrunk. Both resumes

contain the same details, but one uses a single-column format, the

other a two-column format. Sistrunk's resume content appears in

a slightly different format on page 580 of Technical Writing:

A Practical Approach, Seventh Edition, by William S. Pfeiffer and Kaye Adkins,

copyright 2009 by Prentice Hall, Inc. The two resumes below, however,

have been redesigned to show you how to create a format for your

own resume. Both resumes use boldfaced headings and subheadings

to divide the resume into sections. Bullets emphasize key points

within each section. A line border separates Sistrunk's name and

address from the resume body to give the page more of a letterhead

look. After each resume you will find instructions to design that

format.If you are a first-time user

of Microsoft Word, please read Guide

to Writing Paragraphs, Essays, Letters, and Memos with Microsoft

Word 2007® to learn the basic operations of using Microsoft Word 2007®.Once you understand the basics

of using Microsoft Word®, also read Guide

to Using Bullets, Numbering, Tab Stops, Headings, and Paragraph

Styles in Microsoft Word 2007®. This document will instruct you in how to insert bullets and headings

into your resume.
