Best Answer
The original template as well as the code you are giving us is a bit of a mess ;-)
\href{http://chat.stackexchange.com/rooms/41/tex-latex-and-friends}{\bfseries A nice place to hang out}
.\lineunder
macro to use predefined LaTeX lengths, they can be changed to suit personal taste.\raggedright
which makes a ragged right margin.\small
which makes the current font smaller. If you feel to need an even bigger font size, do as Torbjørn says in the comments and use either11pt
or12pt
.The whole thing was cluttered with changes of horizontal space, which was obviously due to a positive parskip as well as spurious spaces. I set the
parindent
to zero, which can be done in this case without any regrets.I left the rest of the resume template untouched and recommend everybody not to use it.
