    What font for your CV?

    Times New Roman 10...... too small?????

    Are employers impressed by a big font?
    I've seen much of the rest of the world. It is brutal and cruel and dark, Rome is the light.

    Comic Sans. The font of the professional.

      ditto Comic Sans- as good as a masonic handshake to those in the trade
      How fortunate for governments that the people they administer don't think

        How about Verdana?

              I use Arial Narrow.

              In the past have used tahoma, arial but to me they all look pretty much the same.

              My CV is 75% bullet points anyway as noone gives a toss how the project was "challenging and rewarding" only that "i saved £xx million p.a."

                Used to be TNR, now Ariel. Mostly bullet points and dates/gig descriptions anyway.

                  I started using Garamond a couple of years ago. I reckon it looks fantastic in conjunction with a good layout, but it's probably one of those fonts that you either love or hate.
