Frequently asked questions
- Is my CV data uploaded to a server?
- No — the form, the live preview and the PDF are all produced in your browser. Your personal details and work history never leave your device.
- What file format do I get?
- A print-ready PDF, the standard format employers and applicant-tracking systems expect. It downloads straight to your device.
- Will the PDF pass applicant-tracking systems (ATS)?
- The template uses a clean, single-column, text-based layout that ATS software parses well — no images-as-text or complex tables. Still, always tailor the wording to the job's keywords for the best parsing.
- Can I add multiple jobs and degrees?
- Yes — the work-experience and education sections are repeatable, so add as many entries as you need and remove any you don't.
- Can I change the colours?
- Yes — an accent-colour picker lets you match your personal brand while keeping the layout clean and professional. There's one polished template to keep the result consistent and readable.
- What's the difference between a CV and a resume?
- In the US a 'resume' is a short 1–2 page summary, while a 'CV' can be longer and more academic; in the UK, Europe and much of the world 'CV' just means the standard job-application document. This tool builds the concise, general-purpose kind either way.
- How long should my CV be?
- For most roles, one to two pages. Lead with your most relevant, recent experience and trim older or unrelated entries. The live preview shows when you're spilling onto extra pages.
- Can I edit it again later?
- The tool doesn't save your data between sessions, so keep the source details handy (or the downloaded PDF) to recreate or tweak it later.
- Do I need to sign up or pay?
- No — it's free with no account and no watermark on the PDF.
- Can I generate an invoice or quote too?
- Yes — for business documents, see our Invoice Generator and Quote/Estimate Generator, which follow the same client-side, download-a-PDF approach.
