How to Make Letters Bold on My Resume

While applications, cover letters and references all help with employment, the resume is essentially the granddaddy of them all, when it comes to getting hired by an employer. Formatting your resume to include bold letters allows you to create an organized, sophisticated and crisp-looking document that showcases you and your qualifications for the job. 

Instructions:

1.Open the word processing program you wish to use.

2. Click the "B" icon when you're ready to bold a section of your resume. Begin typing the letters you wish to bold. The letters should appear as bold font. If you've already typed the letters without enabling bold font, highlight the letters and click "B."

3. Click the "B" icon again, when you wish to disable the bold font.

4. Insert "<b>" before the letter or string of letters you wish to bold -- if you're writing your resume online in HTML format. End the bold font by typing "</b>" after the last letter you want bold.
