Resume Designs and Layouts (Editor's Note)
Although key and central, "substance" is only one aspect of writing a good resume.  The other side of it is how to structure your resume and how to present the information to have the most impact possible (effective resume layout). 
 
Following are simple things you can do:
  • Use titles and headings.
  • Organize the information on your resume to draw attention to your strengths.
  • Choose the right font and the right font sizes.
  • Be consistent.
  • Print your resume using a laser printer.
The above simple recommendations can dramatically improve the layout of your resume.  You can also look at our extensive list of professionally written resume samples to see what layout you like the most.  Inspire yourself from the pros!

Again, the old adage "it's not what you say, but how you say it" also applies in resume writing.
