Check out this site. Emurse.com: Resume Builder | Maker | Creator (http://www.emurse.com) It saves as you go, so don`t worry about looking for the `save` button. I am working on building mine on the site as we speak and it is a great little program. You can create three different resumes, so if you are like me and have a couple different skill sets that you focus on when job hunting, then you can customize you resumes appropriately. I just thought with the crazy economy right now and the rise in unemployment (coupled with the fact that I work for a company that is going to let go 3500 people in my utility in January) it might be a good idea to brush up on the ole resume. I had just updated mine back in April, but a revisit is never a bad idea. Hopefully this comes in handy to anyone who has a hard time formatting their resume. :bigups

Looks interesting. Is it really free? Another option is create an account at Yahoo Hotjobs. You can create nicely formatted resumes there for free.

Yup, this one is free. The nice thing is that it allows you to download it and print it for those face to face interviews. It also gives you a URL that has the content of the resume that you can give to potential employers just in case. It is just a really nifty service that I will be hanging onto for sure.
