Quick answers

Frequently asked questions about resume templates

Are the resume templates free?

Yes. Sign in to save drafts, edit and download the PDF for free. No payment is needed to use a template.

Can I move my existing CV into a new template?

Yes. Upload a CV or pick one saved in your account; its content is read and placed into the sections of the template you chose. You only review and fill the gaps.

What is an ATS and why does it matter?

An applicant tracking system is software many companies use to read and filter resumes automatically. An ATS-friendly resume has clear section headings, a single column and no tables or decorative graphics, so the software reads everything.

How do the Chinese and Japanese templates differ from a regular resume?

Chinese and Japanese companies expect a photo, date of birth, the position applied for and education listed chronologically. The Japanese template follows the 履歴書 layout Japanese recruiters know; the Chinese template uses the 个人简历 layout written entirely in Chinese, as Chinese companies expect.
