Free ATS-friendly resume template
Type into the form, watch the resume build on the right, then download a clean DOCX or PDF. Single column, standard headings, nothing a parser can trip on.
Why this layout works
Every choice here follows the ATS-friendly format rules: contact details as the first lines of the body (not in a page header), conventional headings, one date format, bullets that start with verbs, and a skills line written as plain words. It prints on one US Letter page for most people with under ten years of experience.
After you download it, run the file through the ATS checker with a job ad to check keyword coverage.
Questions people ask
Is this resume template really ATS-friendly?
It follows the rules that matter for parsing: one column, standard headings, plain-text contact details in the body, dates on every role, real bullets and no tables, text boxes or graphics. You can verify it by running the exported file through the checker.
How do I download it as a PDF?
Click “Download PDF”. Your browser’s print dialog opens with only the resume on the page; choose “Save as PDF” as the destination. The result has selectable text.
Is my information saved?
Only in your own browser (localStorage), so you can come back and keep editing. Nothing is sent to a server. Use “Clear everything” to delete it.
Can I edit the Word version?
Yes. The DOCX download is a normal Word document using a built-in heading style and bullet list, so it opens in Word, Google Docs, Pages and LibreOffice.
