Creating the perfect resume is one thing that must be considered by a job applicant. That's because every day the HRD could receive up to dozens of resumes from applicants for a position, and if you have not managed to create one that is able to win the attention of HR, of course, your resume will only be a pile of paper on their desks, or even end up in the trash.

The human resources department of a particular institution is not only appreciating a beautiful resume design, but they also appreciate the super creative person who is able to present himself well and interesting. In general, about 80% nearly things that is often overlooked by the HRD when receiving a resume are:
- Name
- Education
- Skill
- Work experience
Therefore you have to be smart and creative in presenting the information, and also consider the font size, layout position and presentation of the information, lest there should be information that is not appropriate, or even not included because it would result in a lack of information needed by the company, and it can be quite fatal. Some things you should really notice is the contact information, such as phone number and current email, so they can be easily invite you for an interview. It is unfortunate if one when the company could not contact a prospective candidate for a job in their company, just because he does not list no phone or email. It is quite unfortunate indeed for the company because it is not easy to get qualified candidates with the required criteria, and it is also detrimental to the candidate because it is not easy to get a call from the company because they have to compete with dozens of other candidates, so check back for your resume before sending it to company, so that this problem can be avoided.
If you feel that you have met all the criteria required by the company, then the next most important thing is how to make your resume look the most prominent of the other candidates, a neatly designed resume for some people may look tacky and somewhat exaggerated, but believe that this simple thing can make a huge difference in the eyes of HRD.
Here I will show some example of resume that really stands out in terms of design:

Design has become a part of our lives, like it or not we have to admit that without the touch of a good design then a resume or a quality product will never "look" really good.
