I have saved email to desk top but when i get ready to copy paste resume when applying on line, the resume is not in order on the pasted area. Please instruct me on how to set it where it can send in normal form of a resume. Thank you

If you are pasting into an on-line form your formatting from Word may not come out right. The best way to do it is to make a second resume in Word that you will only use for cutting and pasting text into on-line forms. This second resume must be very basic, and not contain any formatting except spaces and returns (to start a new line). So, no tabs, center or right justifying, no different indentations, no columns, no tables, no graphics, no special characters, no bulleted lists (use - or * instead of bullets) etc. Only returns and spaces. Now when you cut and paste the format will be exactly the same as it was in this second Word resume.

If a Company ask for Resume you can either Send it in a Word Format using MS Word Application
Also always keep a Notepad ready and create a simple resume which can be used for copy paste when some companies ask for online forms !
Best of luck!

Your wording is not clear to me. You pasted your resume on the desktop. o.k.
You can send it as an attachment, or, open it, use Edit, Select All to select it, copy, then paste into the e-mail message.
I'm sure the person opening your e-mail is looking for substance over style -- at least I hope so. Be sure you have something to offer and check carefully for spelling and grammatical errors -- they are a real turnoff.

Are you using Microsoft word?
I usually send mine as an attachment to an email, but with some programs I copy and paste and it changes the format too. I just manually fix it each time. I know that may not be much help, but thought it was worth a try!

I had just sent my resume via email. In order to send it properly, you have to save it as a .doc file. This way, you can send it as an attachment through the email.
