“Using a tool such as Emurse to help you focus your energy on the content of your resume, instead of wrestling with your word processor to get it to display right, is smart, especially since many big businesses now use resume processing software (see Authoria, BrassRing, Taleo, and Vurv) that’s unimpressed by fancy formatting. On the other hand, sometimes you really want to hand someone that nicely laid-out piece of paper. Emurse is a good tool to create it.”

Emurse - Resumes Improved » SolutionWatch.com

“The Emurse resume builder is great and possibly the best I’ve seen yet. It’s also very responsive being it is all dynamic using Ajax to allow you to easily add, sort, and modify information in your resume, saving each time you make a change automatically so you don’t loose anything. To get going, you start by adding sections of your resume. I started off by adding the Personal Information section which contains details usually listed at the top of any basic resume (although one field I felt should be added that doesn’t exist already is personal website), then my Objective. You can add more as you go as well as removeing and sorting them where you please.”
