How to make a resume

1. Personal details — add your name, job title, email, phone, location and links to LinkedIn, GitHub or your website.
2. Summary — write two or three lines about who you are and what you are looking for.
3. Experience — add each job with company, role, dates and bullet points. Tick “current” for the job you are in now.
4. Education, skills and projects — add degrees, grouped skills and projects with their tech stack and link.
5. Extras — optionally switch on certifications and languages (from Native to Basic).
6. Design — pick a template, font and accent colour, and hide any section you do not need.
7. Click Print / PDF and choose Save as PDF in the print window.

5 resume templates

• Modern — clean layout with a colour accent; works for most jobs.
• Classic — traditional format preferred in law, finance and government roles.
• Minimal — lots of white space, easy for recruiters to scan.
• Executive — confident layout for senior and management roles.
• Creative — more personality for design, marketing and media jobs.

Each template works with Sans, Serif or Mono fonts and eight accent colours (Blue, Slate, Emerald, Violet, Rose, Amber, Teal, Black) or any custom colour.

Resume writing tips that get interviews

• Keep it to one page if you have under ten years of experience.
• Start bullets with action verbs such as “built”, “led”, “reduced” or “launched”.
• Add numbers: “cut support tickets by 30%” is stronger than “improved support”.
• Match the job post: reuse the exact skill names from the listing so applicant tracking systems (ATS) find them.
• Use a simple layout and a professional email address; avoid photos unless the country expects them.
• Save as PDF so the layout looks the same on every device.

Private by design

Your resume is built entirely in your browser. Nothing you type is uploaded or stored on our servers. Because nothing is saved, finish your resume and save the PDF in one session — reloading the page starts again from the sample resume.

Frequently asked questions

Is this resume builder really free?

Yes. Every template, colour and the PDF export are free, with no sign up and no watermark.

How do I download my resume as a PDF?

Click Print / PDF, then choose Save as PDF (or Microsoft Print to PDF) as the printer. Only the resume is printed — not the editor.

Is the resume ATS-friendly?

The resume is real text, not an image, so applicant tracking systems can read it. For the best results use the Classic or Minimal template and standard section names.

Can I make a CV with this tool?

Yes. A CV and a resume use the same sections; for a longer academic CV, switch on certifications and languages and add more education and project entries.
