With so many applicants clamoring for jobs, it’s tempting to want to do something to stand out from the crowd: a creative cover letter, a recommendation from an influential friend, maybe even a retweet or mention in social media. But the one place you should avoid exotic creativity is in your resume font. “You want to stick with fonts that are legible, neutral and easy to read,” says Amanda Augustine, career expert at Top Resume. “Recruiters are scanning resumes for 6 seconds, and if they can’t get past an unprofessional font, your resume may get overlooked.” Before you make the unfortunate choice of a passé or obnoxious font, here’s a list of the worst fonts to avoid on your resume prepared by Insidermonkey experts.

According to a study conducted by a job search site, recruiters spend only about six seconds scanning a resume. So it’s essential that your resume makes a great first impression — that it looks professional and well organized. How do you do that? You start by using a resume font people can actually read, then you design a resume that stands out from the rest. You can check our list of the 7 best fonts to use on your resume.
