Free Resume Builder
Resume Builder turns your contact details, summary, experience, education and skills into a single-column PDF resume of plain, selectable text that applicant tracking systems can parse. Write a cover letter in the Cover letter tab to download it as a matching PDF. Your data stays saved in this browser's local storage, and the export is PDF only for now.

Quick answers
Is my information uploaded?
No. The resume is built and the PDF generated entirely in your browser. Your data is saved only on this device, in local storage.
What makes it ATS-friendly?
A single column of real, selectable text with standard fonts and no tables or images, which applicant tracking systems parse far more reliably than designed, multi-column templates.

Frequently asked questions
Can I export to Word?
Not yet — the export is PDF. A .docx export is planned.
Does it keep my data if I come back later?
Yes, on the same browser. It is stored locally and never sent anywhere; clearing your browser data removes it.
