Your Name Font, size and others

You might not be aware but the size and other details of your names in your resumé counts in the overall appearance of you resumé.  The size in particular should not be that big nor small. Of course, this depends also on how long your name may be.  And don't forget to stick you 2 X 2 or past port size picture in the top right side of the paper.

I would like to suggest that your name be placed in the center of the paper.  But of course, you can also place it on the left side too, as it appear good to you and to the prospective reader.  Below your name is the address, contact number and email address if you have one.

This part of your resumé should appear in a professional manner.  The email address you will be slapping under you name should appear professional too.  You should be careful in using email addresses as this will affect and trigger the reader to just set aside you application. An email address appearing like yourfullname@mail is a professional email but not with yournameonly1234@mail and likes is not at all appear professional.  I would like to emphasize that a number or special character should not be included in your email.  You should not create an email like this to be used in you application for a job whether it online or a day job.

You see, it is not that simple to just type a resumé in submit it to your prospect job as this is also considered a business communication where you showcase your abilities and capacities which the business can get for them to make the business grow and productive.  Yes, even the utility workers contribute something in the overall objective of such business.  Be careful when creating your resumé .

For the font for your name, use only the regular fonts being used.  Italics name is not suggested.  There are places in the resumé where you can use italize words but not your name.  This is wrong and unprofessional.  I'll be writing more about resumé and its structure in the future.  Feel free to share your ideas too,  just fill up the comment box.
