To replace the icons on Microsoft Word, you can follow these steps:

1. Open the template in Microsoft Word 2010 or any higher version.
2. Select the icon you want to replace. If all the icons are selected at once, it means the icons are grouped and you need to ungroup them first.
3. Make sure to ungroup the icon/shape by selecting the icon and clicking the right button of your mouse. Then click on ‘ungroup.’
4. Select only the icon and hit the delete button on your keyboard.
5. After deleting all the icons you don’t want to use, you can copy and paste icons from our icon library (which we already provide with your download).
6. Resize each icon one by one and place them in the correct position.

We can also offer you a free icon replacement service for your resume. Just email us your hobby list, and we’ll replace the icons on your resume and return it via Google Drive or email.
