Here’s how you present a hard-copy resume:
-
- Use high-quality resume paper (the best is linen 100% cotton 32 lb)
- Print a hard copy of your resume onto standard 8.5” × 11” US letter-size paper
- Carry your resume into the interview in a portfolio folder to keep it clean and free of creases
- If you use a two-page resume (or longer), use paperclips to attach the pages together.
Before the interview begins, present a hard copy of your resume to each interviewer. Bring a couple of extra copies in case one gets lost or there are more interviewers than you expected.
