Word 2013 and Word Online offer a variety of templates, much like PowerPoint templates, that you can install and use for a variety of purposes. Need to create a flyer for an event? There’s a template for that. A project timeline? There’s a template for that.

But what’s one of the most important and heavily formatted types of content that we use Word documents for? The resume or CV, of course. And Office 365 has solutions for simplifying the task of creating a resume that will have you ready to reach your goals.
