According to the following article, http://www.careerjournal.com/jobhunting/resumes/20070821-needleman.html, the appearance of a resume is nearly as important as its content.
Employers often see a large number of resumes. Because they must sift through piles of documents, the design must catch their attention. The article, "Pretty in Ink: Making the Resume Look as Appealing as the Content," features several occasions when an applicant got the job in part because of the appearance of his resume.
I agree with the article. The design of a resume demonstrates an applicant's creativity and attention to detail. In my chosen profession, architecture, the graphic design of the document is more important than it is in other fields. Creativity is one of the most critical skills an architecture applicant must market.
