Top Tips for Sending Your Resume Electronically
E-Mailing Your Resume: the Proper Techniques
Your parents used stamps, but today's fast-paced world often requires you to send your resume out at the touch of a mouse. Here are some tested methods for ensuring a successful placement into the hands of a prospective employer.
Make sure your cover letter and résumé are e-friendly. Don't send them as attachments, but instead, paste them into the body of the e-mail. Practice sending them via e-mail to yourself as well as a friend who uses a different Internet service provider—to ensure the documents are clean and professional-looking.
Remove all formatting, including lines, boxes, bold, italics, and underlining. Change the font to 12 pt. Courier. Convert your page margins to 1 inch on the left and 3 inches on the right. When you save the cover letter or résumé, choose “Save As” and change the type to “Text only with Line Breaks.” Then, click “OK” or “Yes,” whichever comes up in the dialog box.
Clean up. Launch either Notepad (PC) or SimpleText (Mac) to reformat and clean up your résumé. Move all centered items to the left margin, and make sure all text is flush left. As you scroll through your document, remove all Tabs, replace all bullets with asterisks (*), and change bolded words to all caps. Increase white space by hitting Return twice between sections.
Follow these simple steps and you should have no problem navigating your resume through the net.
