Crafting a successful resumé is hard work. Once you have the content of your resumé figured out, you still need to make it look good. There are some online tools that will help you with formatting and the overall design.
One tool, ineedaresu.me, is particularly easy to use. You fill in your information and the website creates a sample resumé. You can then tweak the font, spacing, and other details. There is no way to create an account and you just save the pdf or print the results directly from the website. None of your data is saved so your privacy is protected. Read more about this tool at Lifehacker. Read more about resumé design at PurdueOWL.
