I want to make my own online resumé website, so that I could show it to future employers. I'm currently working on choosing typefaces based on personal traits I want to portray which are: dynamic,professional,trustable and innovative.
I also would like to know which typeface characteristics should I look into to achieve the aforementioned traits. I know that for example to portray a friendly and warm feeling I should look for rounded typefaces with open counters,but except that I don't know much more about looking into characteristics to get to the results I look for.

As someone who looks at a lot of résumés, may I say... please don't do this. Just make it clean and readable. Really. Dazzle me with your portfolio. But your CV needs to be something I can read fast. I'm looking for specific keywords based on the job I'm filling, how long you've been working, and the software you know.

This question/answer is not quite a duplicate but it's closely related:
Is a graphical/original resume a good idea for a designer?

If I can't find the keywords I need in one, possibly two quick reads, I'm going to move on to the next résumé from the inch-thick stack in front of me.
