How to Use Pongo Resume

Pongo Resume teaches you tips to help you snag your next interview

Pongo Resume, an online vendor, offers two types of service: free and paid. With the free service you can create an account, build resumes and cover letters, print those documents, and read articles and blog posts produced by Pongo Resume. With the paid service, you receive all the free features and are also able to e-mail, fax, download and publish your resume to the Internet for recruiters to view.

Instructions

1. Create a free account by visiting the Pongo Resume Web site. Choose the free trial. You can upgrade later if you want to continue using the service.

2. Follow the steps until it asks you if you want to create a resume or letter. Choose "Resume" and give your resume a name. Select "Create Resume."

3. Write in your information for all the relevant sections. If you have already created a resume on your computer, you can copy and paste from your document into the correct section. The resume builder does not allow you to upload a document.

4. Change the layout, headings, fonts, margins and other preferences by clicking the correct option in the upper right hand corner. Save your finished product by clicking "Save" in the upper left hand corner.

5. Print your resume by clicking "Print Preview" in the upper left hand corner. You can also e-mail, fax, download or publish the resume to the web by upgrading to paid service.

6. Create cover letters by clicking the "Letters" tab and following the same process you used to create a resume. You can also view interview tips, read other job seeking tips or read the Pongo Resume blog by clicking the appropriate tab.
