The formatting of the document should remain the same. Then click "Choose." If you decide to change the font or font size after you've begun working on the document, that's fine too simply highlight the text within the document, and change the font from the "Fonts" panel. If the employer has specified certain fonts or font sizes in the job posting, choose those here. From the Templates window, click on the one you want to highlight, and then select your desired colors and fonts. Once the template is downloaded, it should appear among your templates when you launch Word. If none of those appeal to you, check out the Microsoft Office "Templates/Resumes" Web page.
#MAKE RESUME ON MAC FOR MAC#
Launch Word for Mac from your Mac's Dock and then select "Resumes" from the list of Templates that appear along the left hand side of the window.

In either case, make some notes about your most recent jobs, the duties you performed, and the skills required for the job. You'll know what skills are best to list for an individual job by closely reading the job posting, and then pulling out the required or desired skills the employer wants that apply to you. If you're applying for a job that you haven't done before – but for which you still have the skills to qualify – use a skills-based or "functional" resume, which highlights your best skills or accomplishments near the top of the page. That type of resume lists your most recent jobs near the top of the page in reverse chronological order. If you have extensive experience doing the work that the new position includes, use the more traditional, chronological resume format.
