How to Use Resume Wizard in Microsoft Word

1. Open a blank Word document. After booting your computer, double-click on the Word icon and wait for a blank document to load.
2. Click on New and start the template. When you click on New, you will see a dialogue box pop up with all the templates available on your computer for Word documents.
3. Click on the Other Documents tab. You will see a bunch of templates, including several for resumes. Skip these and double-click on the Resume Wizard icon.
4. Start the Wizard. The Resume Wizard will walk you through a series of questions, beginning with the style of resume you would like, the header information such as your name, address, phone number, etc, and other heading choices. Work your way through the questionnaire, adding section headings like professional experience, education and certifications until your resume reflects everything you want your prospective employer to know about you. As you complete each section of the Wizard, click next, located at the bottom of the page, in order to move forward. If you make a mistake, click Back.
5. Finish the template. When you are satisfied with the categories you have added to your resume, click finish. The Wizard will sort and format all of your choices into a professional-looking resume template. You will then be required to input the details into the newly formed template.
6. Print or save the resume. Your resume is now complete and ready to be sent out, whether by postal service, email, or in person.
