Questions about the templates

Are these resume templates free?

Three of them are free on every account, with no watermark and five PDF downloads. The rest are on the paid plan, which you can take as a subscription or as a one-off 60-day pass.

Which template should I pick?

If you are applying online at a mid-size or large employer, pick one marked ATS-friendly: single column, standard headings, nothing for a parser to trip over. If a human opens your resume first — a referral, a small company, a design role — the visual templates are safe.

Can I switch templates later?

Yes, at any time. Your details live in your profile, not in the design, so switching template re-renders the same content into the new layout. Nothing is retyped and nothing is lost.

Can I change the colors and fonts?

Visual templates come in eight accent colors, and every template offers a choice of font and text density. ATS-friendly templates stay in grayscale on purpose, because that is what parses most reliably.

What file do I get?

A text-based PDF, which is what almost every application asks for and what an ATS can read. There is no watermark on any plan.

Do these work for a CV as well as a resume?

Yes. Outside North America the same one- or two-page document is called a CV, and these templates suit it. Academic CVs, which run much longer, are a different document.

Pick one and fill it in

Upload an existing resume, import your LinkedIn profile as a PDF, or answer a few questions and let AI write the first draft. Ten minutes to a finished PDF.
