As you can imagine, as a Retained Executive Search Firm in Austin, Texas, I certainly do my share of reading resumes. Recently I received a very cool resume that incorporated a very simple idea.

The candidate included a company logo on the left-hand side of each firm she had worked for and for the universities she attended.

I was more interested to read the resume as it was unique and it gave me a clear visual understanding.

Simple idea but it worked on me. Perhaps add it to your resume. Whatever works to keep it “reader-friendly” and interesting for the company representative you are sending your resume to.
