A well presented resume is a piece of personal marketing and self branding. In its best form, it sheds a bright light upon you and helps you win the sympathies of your potential employer or important client.
Remember, at first they don’t see you nor talk to you. It all starts with the good old resume. In standard situations, employers still prefer the traditional paper kind. But even when your potential employer is more modern, sticking to the known rules of old is not an error.
Noupe has done a great job collecting free, fresh resume templates provided by great designers. You will find clean, simple resumes and some original, special, not always fitting ones. You can simply populate any of these mockups with your data or use them as patterns in order to create your own attention-grabbing self presentation.
