I get CVs sent to me regularly, some good, some awful (getting my name wrong, spelling mistakes... come ON people!) But one thing to consider is which font to use.
Marina Flor (see quote below) likens Times to going to an interview in sweatpants.
CVs - think they're all about using the right buzzwords, and finding ways to make your previous jobs sound more important than they actually were? Think again. It turns out picking a CV font is a MINEFIELD full of FONT MINES. That will explode if you type them onto your CV. So what fonts should you avoid for maximum career success? How can you go wrong with this classic of the font genre? By using it at all, apparently - speaking to Bloomberg, font expert Martina Flor warned against using Times New Roman: "It’s telegraphing that you didn’t put any thought into the typeface that you selected. It’s like putting on sweatpants.”
