So, you want to make sure that your resume can be easily read. What size font is best suited for a resume and cover letter?
My suggestion is size 10 font for the CV, and either size 10 or size 11 font for the cover letter.
Generally speaking, most job applications are viewed online, rather then printed out and read in paper form. The reason being is that a recruiter/employer may receive hundreds of applications. In the interests of saving paper/environmental sustainability and cost reduction (costs in paper and ink), they may opt to just view the application documents online.
Viewing documents on a computer screen allows you to expand and zoom in on the document, depending on the reader’s preference.
Would you like a new and tailored resume and cover letter that helps to highlight the valuable skills and experience you have gained in past roles? Would you like assistance addressing key selection criteria?
