Go to Amazon and buy Resumes that knock ‘em dead and what does someone have to do to get a job around here. Very applicable to what employers and recruiters look for today.

There are actually templates of resumes that you can download at http://WWW.MICROSOFT.COM Look under the version of Office that you use. If you use another word processing software check the site for the software that you use. These templates show you exactly how to prepare your resume.

Microsoft works and office have templates too.

Usually if you are just updating if you have your old resume you can just adjust it.

I usually find a format I like and use word as I am familiar with that.

Just did from scratch resume for entry level simple in less than 1/2 hour includeing choices and tweeking etc. in Works.

Just tried the yahoo resumes thing the other poster mentioned and it is great. a little limited in some respects but easy to use. So vote for the other poster’s answer!!!!!

Yahoo has templates. Go to hotjobs then click on the tab that says my resumes. Click on resume builder under create a new resume. When I made mine a few years ago, I had a section called Activities where I listed things like PTO President and other volunteer work.
