I already have my content written in a Microsoft Word file; what I need now is a polished, traditional-but-fresh layout that instantly looks a step above Word’s default templates. Think clean horizontal rules, balanced white space, and a tasteful mix of serif and sans-serif type so headings stand out while body text stays highly readable—nothing flashy, no heavy graphics, just subtle design cues that signal professionalism. You’ll receive two files from me the moment we start: 1. The current résumé that needs the makeover. 2. A sample document whose overall look and feel I like, which should serve as your style reference. Using those, please rebuild the résumé so it reflects that same restrained elegance. I’m happy with Word as the working format, but once the design is finalized I’d also like a print-ready PDF exported from the edited file. Deliverables • Updated .docx with new layout, fonts, and line work • Corresponding high-resolution PDF If anything in the reference sample isn’t clear, just ask before proceeding so the first draft lands close to perfect.

You want your existing résumé rebuilt into a polished Word layout that carries the reference sample’s restrained elegance—clean rules, balanced spacing, and a refined serif/sans-serif hierarchy—then exported as a print-ready PDF. Before design begins, which matters more for this résumé: preserving the current page count exactly, or improving visual hierarchy even if the content reflows slightly? That choice will determine the spacing, typography, and section structure, and it is the key to making the final document feel intentional rather than simply reformatted.
