job11 Internet Job: Formatting Your Electronic Résumé Part (4)· When you finish, spell-check your document, and then ask another person to read it over. Remember, spell-checkers don’t pick up errors such as two for to or too.

· Verify that all information is correct, especially dates. It’s easy to make a typo when entering dates. When you’re satisfied with the appearance and content of your résumé, save it again.

Now, to see how your résumé looks when it arrives in the body of an e-mail message, send it to yourself. If you’re using Word 2000, click the File menu, click Send To, and then click Mail Recipient. Your résumé will open in the body of the New Message window in Outlook Express. Enter your e-mail address, and click Send.

WARNING: Never send your electronic résumé as an attachment to an e-mail message. Most employers will simply delete your message without opening it because of the many recent computer viruses that travel via e-mail attachments. Also, some of your recipients may not be very computer savvy and may not know how to handle e-mail attachments.
