The job interview is nerve wracking — but there are plenty of ways to prepare to help you feel confident.

☆ Don't use color on your resume—unless they're 'hiring you for your creativity'
  + stars: | 2022-10-26 | by ( Gili Malinsky | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +2 min
For instance, while the standard resume is written in black font, should you consider colors like green or purple as well? 'Nobody really wants a creative accountant'When it comes to a colorful font, experts agree it really depends on the industry you're in. Keep it to Arial, Times New Roman or Calibri, 11-point, black font on a white or cream-colored resume. However, when you are in a field "that they're hiring you for your creativity," says Bauke, like graphic design or animation, "you've got more room to play with." If you've chosen a color other than black, try printing out your resume to see if it's legible before using it.
