How To Make A Resume Using Microsoft Word?

Your resume is not a simple document where you list your education, work experience and other information about you. Your resume is an important promotional tool in which your potential employer or recruiter makes the first impression about you. This promotional tool should best reflect you with its layout and design as well as the information it contains. For this reason, the size, font, colors and placement of the articles in your resume are as important as the content. An eye-pleasing design will make your CV much more attractive.

Word has a number of templates for the resume and cover letter. You can access these templates by following the steps below:

1. Open the File menu in Word
2. Select New from Template. You will see templates that you can use for the new file.
3. Type CV in the search window. All CV templates in Word are sorted
4. Double click on the template you like
5. Enter your own information in the placeholder text
