SOLUTION
Summary of the Job Posting
I ensured that related elements, such as job titles, responsibilities, and employment dates, were grouped together. This made it easier for the reader to scan and understand the content quickly. For example, I listed my job titles immediately above the corresponding tasks, creating a logical flow. Additionally, I applied consistent alignment throughout the document to create a clean, professional look. All text, including section headings, job titles, and bullet points, is left-aligned to ensure readability and maintain a structured appearance. I repeated formatting choices such as font type, bullet points, and spacing to create a cohesive feel. This consistency in design helped unify the sections and made the resume more aesthetically pleasing. Finally, I used contrast by varying the font sizes for section headings versus body text, drawing attention to key areas like my name, contact information, and major sections. This made it easier for hiring managers to locate critical information at a glance.
