Default Uploading Mac resume doc format?

Hi guys,

Here is my problem. I have Microsoft Word for Mac 2011 version 14.3.8

The reason I bought it, was because I need a .doc file for my resume instead of .pdf. Since ATS can only read .doc resumes, I needed to have that format.

There's one problem though.

At the bottom of my resume, I have a technical skills section. In order to fit the information on one page, I neatly organized my bullets into three columns.

When I upload my resume to LinkedIn, in the preview I see the bullets were reverted to only 1 column, and the resume spanning two pages. My .pdf version of the resume looks a lot cleaner, but I have to use the .doc resume.

My question is, how do I make it so when I upload a file, it keeps its formatting?

Help is much appreciated.
