I'm getting feedback from colleagues that, as a marketer, my resume should be more "designed"...with fonts and different columns. On the other hand, everything I read says that Applicant Tracking Systems at companies don't like any formatting and my resume should be very simple.

Does anyone have any advice on how to handle this? Would especially love to hear from people in marketing.
