I do a fair bit of interviewing and it's interesting the wide variety of fonts people use in their CVs. The old days of Times New Roman, Helvetica etc. are long gone (or are they ?)
What font do you use when setting up a CV ? Do you opt for the professional but oh-so-conservative Times New Roman ? Do you go for the funkier, edgier fonts like Haettenschweiler ? Or the cutesy ones like Kristen ITC or Jokerman ? Do you mix up your fonts in the same document ?
I used Typewriter font for a while, that was pretty cool.
What does my Font say about me?
That I am going blind and need to use large Fonts to see what I am writing.
Ariel and Verdana for me. Clean, soft and pleasing to the eye.
Don't mind serifs, especially when a classical statement is made.
However the overall design is more important than fonts selected.
Differing fonts in design can assist in clarifying a message. (The fonts chosen is lesser important)
I like Verdana for emails or lots of writing.
Have used Univers........just a smidge different from Verdana/Helvetica and still very readable.
My favourite for design work where text is required is Garamond - subtle but not quirky,not at all like me
I have a penchant for Brush.......have never used it but find it most attractive
