The resume format:

• To start, make sure the format is simple and consistent in design, font, sizing, and spacing throughout so that the person reviewing your resume can easily scan and find information quickly.
• Black ink is always a safe bet, but other font colors are okay as long as they're readable.
• And PDF formatting is preferred.

contact information:

• Include your contact information and email at the top.
• You don't have to include objective statements, but if you do, make sure it's relevant to the job you've applied for.
• You also don't need to include references.

Length of Resume:

• Try to keep your resume to one page for business and internship roles and no longer than two pages for engineering roles.
• Really focus on including what's relevant for the specific role you're applying for.
• Use bullet points with consistent formatting and structure throughout the resume rather than long paragraphs.
• And perhaps the most important tip we have overall is to always check for typos.
