THREE SIMPLE STEPS

How to make a resume

01

Fill in your details

Start blank, from an example or by importing a JSON Resume file. Add your experience, education, skills and any other sections, and drag them into order.

02

Pick a design

Choose one of ten templates, then the colour, font, text size, margins and page size. The pages update as you type.

03

Check and download

Fix what the checklist finds, then download a PDF, a Word file, plain text or JSON Resume. Free, with no watermark.

WHY IT'S DIFFERENT

Everything a resume needs, and free to download

Free downloads, no catch

Download your resume and cover letter as often as you like as PDF or Word. No account, no trial, no watermark, no paywall at the end.

Made for tracking systems

The PDF holds real text in reading order with standard headings, so applicant tracking systems can read your name, dates and skills. Pages break between lines, and a job title always stays with its first bullet.

Ten templates

Classic, Modern, Minimal, Executive, Sidebar, Creative, Compact, Academic CV, Elegant and Timeline, each with your choice of colour, font, size and margins.

Any language

Headings, dates and “Present” in 16 languages. Text in Latin, Greek and Cyrillic alphabets, Vietnamese, Chinese, Japanese and Korean is printed with embedded fonts.

A checklist that helps

Finds missing contact details and sections, bullets that run too long or have no numbers, mixed verb tenses, weak openers and impossible dates.

Yours to keep

Several resumes saved in your browser with undo and redo. Export to JSON Resume, the open standard, to back up or move your resume.

Resume Builder FAQ

Is this resume builder really free?

Yes. Building, editing and downloading are free: PDF, Word, plain text and JSON, as many times as you like, with no account and no watermark.

Is my resume uploaded anywhere?

No. It is made and saved in your browser on this device. Only the fonts are downloaded. Clearing your browser's site data deletes saved resumes, so download a JSON copy as a backup.

Are the templates ATS-friendly?

Yes. The PDF contains real text, not a picture, in reading order and with standard section headings. One-column templates are the safest choice for online applications; two-column ones read correctly here, but some older systems mix columns up.

Can I make my resume in another language?

Yes. Choose the resume language in Design to print headings, month names and “Present” in one of 16 languages, or type your own headings. Arabic, Hebrew, Hindi and Thai text can't be printed yet; the editor tells you if your resume contains it.

How is the Word file different from the PDF?

The Word file always has one column and uses a standard Office font close to the one you chose, so you can keep editing it. Its pages may break differently from the PDF.

Can I import a resume?

You can import a JSON Resume file (jsonresume.org) or a JSON file you downloaded here. Importing from PDF or Word isn't supported.

Can I make a cover letter too?

Yes. Switch to Cover letter: it uses the same contact details, template and colours as your resume, and downloads in the same formats.

How does the resume check work?

It applies rules recruiters and tracking systems commonly use: contact details, expected sections, length, bullet length, measurable results, verb tense and dates. It doesn't read the job ad, and tense and wording checks only work in English.
