Questions

Can screening software (ATS) read my resume?

The PDF keeps real, selectable text, which is what screening software reads. Classic is the safest to send; Sidebar looks designed, but screeners may misread it.

Can I get my resume as a Word file?

Yes. Under "Other formats", choose Word (.docx). It is one clean column, editable in Word or Google Docs.

Should I use A4 or US Letter?

A4 is used outside North America. US Letter is used in the US and Canada.

Is my resume saved?

It stays in this browser, so it is still here next time. It is not sent to any server.
