I recently wanted to create a resume for myself, and I’ve researched some of them on google, to get the basic idea for it. I didn’t visit Pinterest knowingly to create my own style as much as possible. Is the resume too simple or is it informational enough? Do you like the design? Which one do you p…

No. Most of us - well I did anyway - an apprenticeship for 4 years. During this time I worked and went to college. Before I got into prepress and graphic designer I was a screenprinter. I transitioned to the computers by doing a 6 month full time course. Which involved me taking me out of my well …

I am actually studying to enter a university right now. When it comes to work, they also want 2 to 4 years of experience. But I never tought of working in a print shop, that sounds fun.

I’m glad I didn’t hesitate and opened this topic, thank you everyone :hugs:

I just thought the dark mode would print in black and white. I did that for a CV design for someone else who requested it. It worked in a pdf. But I thought was an online CV when j saw the dark and light mode, I thought you were just double checking if someone has dark mode enabled it would be legi…
