Using Your Resume
Using this template will ensure that you have access to a document that you can easily update and customize for specific jobs, as well as to print or email to prospective employers.
If you are going to email your resume, it's best to convert it to a PDF document first, to ensure that the recipient will likely be able to open it and formatting settings on someone else's computer won't affect how the document looks. If you don't have access to a PDF converter, you can download one free at PrimoPDF.
