How to write a strong resume
A good resume is short, organized and easy to skim: a recruiter should understand who you are and what you have done in about 30 seconds. The form follows the order US employers expect — contact information, summary, experience, education and skills — with an example and tips in every section.
There are 26 templates: classic, modern ones with a color band or a sidebar, and templates for students, first jobs and veterans. Switch templates and colors with one click and your content stays. You can also add a text box or a line anywhere on the page, and undo any change.
Questions & answers
- How do I write a resume?
- Top to bottom: your name and contact information, a short summary, work experience from most recent to oldest, education, and skills. Under each job, write two or three lines that start with an action verb and show a result. Fill in the form here or click the text on the page — the design takes care of itself.
- Should a resume be one page?
- For students and anyone with less than about 10 years of experience, yes. Recruiters skim a resume in seconds. If yours runs long, the builder shows it — shorten lines, drop older jobs or turn on Compact.
- Should I put a photo on my resume?
- In the US, no. Most employers prefer resumes without photos, age, marital status or other personal details, to keep hiring fair. That’s why these templates have no photo.
- What do I put on a resume with no work experience?
- Lead with education, then volunteer work, school projects, clubs, sports, babysitting or summer jobs — written like jobs: what you did and what came of it. The “College student” and “First job” templates put sections in the right order.
