HEADER:


A resume begins with the applicant's name, address, and phone number. The Header should always be Bold, or Letter Quality. Experiment with different fonts on your computer. Do not use script. Italic is very effective.

Also, insert the word "CALL" prior to your phone number. Notice the difference.

Examples of various Headers follow:
