How much whitespace should a resume have?
This is the question I have after seeing the new resume templates in Pages ‘08. I have to update my resume, so I was thinking about snazzing it up. Im really not sure about these resume templates. They all look great, but isn’t a resume primarily about a font large enough to read, and getting your message across?
Should I cut out content from my current resume to fit in this format?
Or should I use my current format and say “Forget you apple”?
Here’s my current format:

Your current format is fine. Quantifiable accomplishments are the most important thing in a resume. Your blog profile talks about a sales job, so performance against quota is the key for sales managers. Otherwise, for IT , designed and coded X project on time and under budget is the main consideration.
