Sample Google Docs Resume

January 28, 2010

Once you’ve created a resume using Google Docs you can either copy and paste the HTML into a blog page or retrieve it inline.

The resume below resides on Google Docs. Using a WordPress plug-in the resume is retrieved from Google docs using a 1 line of PHP code. See how the resume appears on Google Docs Resume.

One advantage of the Google Doc page is the ability to download the doc as a PDF or a Word document. Recruiters seem to be very attached to attachments.

Feel free to contact me if you want the plug-in code.

The sample HTML used to create the resume is below this resume. Though you can let Google Docs create the HTML for you I found formatting my own code made a better looking resume. If your resume is in Word I strongly encourage you to start from scratch. The HTML generated by Word is very ugly.



The resume above uses very basic HTML. Don’t let HTML intimidate you! Copy and Paste the code below into Google Docs under the Edit/HTML menu.

<h1>Your Name and LinkedIn Widget code</h1>

<h3>Subheading</h3>

Horizontal Rule
<hr>


<strong>Bold Text </strong> ✔ Text
<hr>

<h3><u>Employer</u></h3>

    <ul>

    <h4>Job Title</h4>

  • <li>Accomplishments 1
  • <li>Accomplishments 2
  • <li>Accomplishments 3

</ul>
