How to write a resume using Microsoft Word 2007

When you are applying for a job, you will need a resume. I will show you how to write an easy resume using Microsoft Word 2007.

Step 1:

When Microsoft Word opens, click the Microsoft Emblem in the top left hand corner, then click "New".



Step 2:

From "New", scroll down to "Resumes", then "Basic Resumes".



Step 3:

Once in "Basic Resumes", pick a template that you like. For this guide, I will be using the Chronological Design (Traditional Design) one. Then click Download.



Step 4:

Once the download is complete, your template will open in a new window.



Step 5:

Fill in your information and print!

Some good tips to remember when creating your resume:

-Keep it 1 page
-No pictures
-No numbers (spell them out)

Good luck on that job!

 

It was good. Little bare topic but good. You could possibly go into how to write a good essay

 

Quite a nice thread you got here. Nice, simple, and most importantly...straight to the point.

An essay is different to a resume, so that's like posting on a RuneScape guide saying you should make a guide on WoW. Not the same things.

 

Thank you. Glad I can help

 

Good use of pictures is the only thing I can really point out that is decent in this guide. I'm not trying to sound horrible or anything but just to give you some simple advice to improve your guides;

You need to have a title (not always needed), sub-titles, colours, fonts and a good layout with good detail explaining each part and picture thoroughly. Try and improve on these things and you will be professional.

 

Well I'm trying to help people and I like to get my point across very easily...yes if it is a really long guide colors could be useful...but not with a how to write a resume.

 

straightforward guide, great for beginners
