You've got your resume ready and everything in it is perfect. But wait. Hold on to it first! You had best change your font right now because chances are, you're using Times New Roman, and that's what's going to stop you from getting hired.

According to Bloomberg:

We went digging for a complete set of professionally fly fonts and returned with just one consensus winner: Helvetica.

“Helvetica is so no-fuss, it doesn’t really lean in one direction or another. It feels professional, lighthearted, honest,” says Brian Hoff, creative director of Brian Hoff Design. “Helvetica is safe. Maybe that’s why it’s more business-y.”

According to this guy, Times New Roman symbolizes laziness:

Using [Times News Roman] might send the wrong sign to your future boss, though. “It’s telegraphing that you didn’t put any thought into the typeface that you selected,” says Hoff. “It’s like putting on sweatpants.”

Moral of the story: change it to Helvetica.
