Use titles and headings
effectively.
Organize the information on your resume to draw
attention to your strengths.
Choose the right font(s) and the right font sizes.
Structure your resume so that it is easy to read
(the recruiter has to be able to skim through your
resume in 30 seconds or less and know what your candidacy is
about).
Be consistent in terms of how you present the
information on your resume.
Once you are done drafting your resume, ask
yourself if your resume is visually appealing.
Remember
that an effective resume layout is necessary to
highlight your qualifications, as opposed to being
an end in itself (in that regard, you don't need a
"nice" resume layout as much as you need an
"effective" resume layout).
Pay
attention to details.
Print your resume using a laser printer.
