Justin,

As a retired HR professional, a lot of larger employers have gone to using automatic screening programs. So, as with any document, if they don't allow it to be submitted electronically, just keep it well-organized; keep the font to something that is pretty easy to be recognized by a typical OCR program i.e. don't use a real fancy font that tries to mimick hand-writing -- I'd say keep it to something like Courier, Times New Roman, Tahoma, etc.

Of course, it is not critical which bullet-type you use; the main thing it to keep it well-organized and nicely layed out. Use Jaws proof-reading capabilities thoroughly to check for obvious errors. Finally, remember to modulate your résumé to include the appropriate "buzzwords" that the specific job is looking for; often, those are entered into the résumé-scanning program in advance, so if it doesn't see those key words, it will throw your résumé to the side.

Okay, I've done that. So, which type would you folks use for resume then? I've noticed that shift control l creates a rather large bullet. Moves everything over a whole margin point, from .05, to 1.25.

Hi, Justin.

I haven't been following this thread, but in Word 2010 you'll find your bullet-type options by doing the following:

Alt-h for home
Press u for bullet formatting.
Tab once to the list of bullet types.

I just can't find small black square. The normal bullet seems to take up too much room on the line.

Hi Justin,
In Word 2007 and newer, go to the Paragraph group in the Home tab. There find the Bullets option and press ALT+DOWN to drop down the button, and then tab to the desired bullet type. In Word 2003 and earlier, select the bullet type in the Bullets and Numbering dialog on the Format menu.

How do you do the black small square bullet?
