Because employers receive hundreds of resumes, the average resume will be looked at for around 8 seconds. It is therefore essential to make you have a professional resume that stands out, which starts with the heading.
The heading includes your name and contact information and you want to make sure your resume won't get lost in a pile if the employer wants to contact you. As a result, your name should be centered, preferably capitalized and written with a bigger font size - between 10 and 16. Use bold and italics for emphasis purpose only. Do not use more than 2 font types.
