Hands-On: Formatting Secrets to Eye Appealing Résumés – Graphs, Charts, Graphics, Tables, and more using Microsoft Office Tools

Presented by Michelle Dumas, Distinctive Career Services, LLC

Friday, August 19, 2016  •  11:30 AM Eastern

Would you like to create résumés that incorporate graphics, charts, tables and graphs to illustrate key points and enhance eye appeal? Recent research studies show that human attention spans are getting shorter, illustrated text has more impact on a reader than text alone, and visuals are processed much faster in the brain than text. For all of these reasons and more, graphically enhanced résumés are becoming more popular.

If you would like to get started incorporating graphic elements into the résumés you create but aren’t quite sure how, this webinar is designed for you. Working in Office 365, Michelle Dumas will demonstrate step-by-step how she creates compelling and vibrant charts, graphs, and other graphical elements to design award-winning résumés for her clients.

Join Michelle for this informative hour and learn how to add visual impact to your résumés. Note that this webinar will specifically cover Office 365 and the included Word 2016 and Excel 2016. However, while the features aren’t exactly alike in all the applications, many of the tools and techniques shown will also apply to Office 2013 and Office 2010.

In this webinar, you will learn how to…

  • Quickly create conceptual shapes and graphical elements
  • Add text to your shapes and insert and alter shapes
  • Enhance your graphics with outlining, textures, color, and more
  • Develop and style tables
  • Create charts and select the best chart type for your data
  • Customize and style charts
  • Improve ATS friendliness of graphically enhanced résumés

* This counts toward 1 CEU of credit for NCRW renewal.

**This webinar will be recorded, and the recording will be distributed to all registrants

$19.99 for members | $29.99 nonmembers.
