Text justification question

Hello, I have a question regarding text justification. I am in the process of making a draft CV and would like to align these three pieces of text. I want the text 'Manager' aligned to the left, 'Example Company' aligned to the centre and '2020 - 2021' aligned to the right. In the screenshot below I have achieved this by simply adding spaces, although this seems inaccurate and would also require manual readjustment if I were to change the text.

 

My question is whether there is a way to align individual pieces of text in a single text frame?

But that's inverting the question. Sure, the average person/non-professional would likely do their own resume, and probably use Word... unless it's Pages, or Google Docs, or something like that. And some proportion of those convert to PDF for all the good reasons we use PDF.

 

Anyone using ID is either a graphics pro or doing it for someone in a more sophisticated tool than Word... and pretty much has to provide it in PDF, since most recruiters, bless their 28yo biz degree hearts, wouldn't know an INDD file from a buggy whip.

 

Point being — my point being — I've never run into a company or recruiter that didn't happily accept a PDF without requesting any fully live form of the document.

I think we're agreeing to agree.

 

Yes, agreed, PDFs are normal. Creation tool does not matter then. In my industry, Word documents are also sometimes requested.
