Optional, but it is the first thing a human reads. Skip the adjectives — name the work.

Experience

Comma-separated. Mirror the wording of the job posting — that is literally what the keyword scan looks for.

Why these templates look plain

Built to survive the parser

One column, real headings, no tables or text boxes. Most applicant tracking systems flatten a resume into plain text before a human ever sees it — the two-column design with icons is where the details go missing.

Your words, tightened

The AI polish button rewrites a role you have already described into verb-led bullets. It works only from what you typed — no invented employers, dates or metrics.

Nothing leaves your machine

The draft lives in your browser's local storage. There is no account, no upload, and no copy of your resume on our servers — only the single role you choose to polish is ever sent.

Free all the way to the file

No watermark, no export paywall, no credit card at the last step. Download the PDF and send it.

Four rules that fix most resumes

1. Lead with the verb, close with the result
"Responsible for the billing service" tells a reader nothing. "Rebuilt the billing service, cutting failed charges from 4% to 0.6%" tells them what you can do for them. If you have a number, it belongs in the bullet.
2. Mirror the posting's vocabulary
If the job says "distributed systems" and your resume says "large-scale backend", a keyword scan may not connect them. Use their words for the things you have genuinely done.
3. Give the recent role the most room
Four to six bullets for your current job, two or three for the one before, one line each for anything older than about eight years. Space on the page should track relevance, not chronology.
4. Every line has to survive a follow-up question
Interviewers pick a bullet and ask you to walk through it. If you cannot talk for two minutes about something on the page, it should not be on the page. Practising exactly that is what InterviewAce is for.

Questions people ask

What makes a resume ATS-friendly?
One column, real text rather than images, standard headings like Experience and Education, ordinary fonts, and nothing important hidden in tables, sidebars, headers or footers. Every template here follows those rules — which is exactly why they look plain.
Do I need an account?
No. The builder runs in your browser and saves your draft to your own device. Nothing is uploaded unless you press AI polish, which sends only that one role's text.
How long should my resume be?
One page under ten years of experience, two beyond that. Recruiters skim the top third first, so your strongest relevant role goes there and older jobs shrink to a line.
Will recruiters know AI helped?
The polish button only rewrites facts you typed into tighter phrasing — it invents nothing. Read every line before sending. If a bullet does not sound like something you would say out loud, change it.
Can I export to Word?
Download PDF opens your browser's print dialog, where you can choose Save as PDF. PDF is the safer format for most portals. If a posting demands .docx, paste the text into Word and keep the same plain structure.
Should I include a photo?
Not for US, UK, Canadian or Australian applications — it adds nothing and complicates fair-hiring review. In parts of continental Europe it is still conventional, so follow the local norm.
