Reasons to use a border on your resume
- When you have a 1-inch margin all the way around your resume
- When you have a lot of white space between sections or bullet points
- When you have less resume content
Reasons not to use a border on your resume
- When you have a ½ margin to a 1 inch margin on your resume
- When you have so much resume content that spacing/sections look crowded – not using the border allows you to decrease the size of your margins to allow space for more content
