ATS-friendly resume templates

Most of them are. You can build and preview on any design at no cost, and the free plan covers three PDF downloads a month. A few premium designs are marked Pro. Nothing you download carries a watermark.

A single column of text in a normal reading order, real headings instead of pictures of headings, and contact details in the body of the page rather than in the page header. Screening software reads all of that without trouble. Two-column layouts, text boxes and tables are where resumes quietly lose half their content.

Any of them — the design does not change what you have done. Start with Minimal ATS if you want the safest option, leave the Experience section empty, and fill in Education, Projects and Internships instead. Empty sections are never printed.

Yes, at any point. Every design reads the same content, so switching is one click and you do not retype a word. Try two, download both, and send whichever reads better.

Yes. Upload a PDF or Word file and we read your details out of it, show you what we found so you can correct it, and fill the design in for you. Free on every plan.

For most private-sector jobs in India, no — it takes space you could use for content, and some screening software stumbles on it. The Minimal ATS design leaves it out. If you are applying somewhere that asks for one, the other designs have a place for it.

One page if you have under five years of work behind you; two is fine after that. What matters more is that every line earns its place — a first pass through a stack of applications is quick.

Your resume stays in your own account. We do not sell data and we do not pass your documents to recruiters. You can export or delete everything from your settings.
