One Page, And No Times New Roman

Posted at 12:19 pm on Thursday, May 8, 2008, in Uncategorized, and tagged .

This is the recent advice I gave a friend for his resume… Make it fit on one page, and use a different font than Times New Roman. Any font, just not Times New Roman.

“What do you have against Times New Roman?” I was asked.

It means that you didn’t make any effort beyond turning on your computer and opening up Word. You simply use the default settings. And you’ll most likely send your resume with your Hotmail account using Internet Explorer. It’s pathetic. And I wouldn’t hire you.

    i hate Times New Roman. Anyone who uses this instead of searching for a proper font amongst the thousands out there is a mediocre person, living in a status quo world.
