Resume Building

Create, edit, format, and tailor resumes for different applications.

Full answer

Start by creating a new resume and picking a template that matches your target role. Resumatica offers eight templates — Professional, Modern, Bold, Classic, Editorial, Herald, Streamline, and Kinetic — and you can switch between them as you edit.

You can build from scratch using guided steps, or import an existing PDF or DOCX resume and let the parser prefill sections like experience, education, and skills. After import, review each section and clean up anything that needs adjustment.

Use the live preview to check layout and readability as you edit. Once your content looks right, export a polished PDF directly from the editor.

Full answer

Yes. Resumes are saved to your account and listed in your dashboard under My Resumes. From there, you can reopen any resume and continue editing without starting over.

When you open an existing resume, your section content, template settings, and saved preview data are loaded back into the editor. You can update text, reorder sections, rename the document, and export a fresh PDF.

If you need a version for a different role, you can duplicate a resume from the dashboard and tailor the copy for that application.

Resumatica includes eight built-in templates: Professional, Modern, Bold, Classic, Editorial, Herald, Streamline, and Kinetic. Each template is designed for clean readability and strong ATS compatibility.

You can choose a template when starting a new resume, then continue refining typography, spacing, and visual settings in the editor's styles controls.

If your target role changes, you can switch template direction without rewriting your entire resume content.

Full answer

Yes. You can export your resume as a PDF from the editor using the Download menu. The PDF output is generated from the same live preview you see while editing.

If you start a download from the dashboard, the app opens the editor with your saved print layout and generates the file there to preserve formatting quality.

DOCX and JSON export options are planned for a future release.

Open the Tailor tab in the editor and either paste a job description or fetch one from a job listing URL. The system analyses requirements, ATS keywords, and role expectations.

Next, it generates a match report with skill coverage and gaps, then suggests bullet rewrites and skill reordering. You can review every suggestion, accept only what is accurate, and leave anything you do not want to change.

The workflow is designed to improve relevance without fabricating achievements, so your final resume still reflects your real experience.

An ATS-friendly resume is structured so applicant tracking systems can read it reliably. That usually means clear headings, straightforward formatting, and content that highlights role-relevant keywords naturally.

Resumatica templates are built with ATS readability in mind and are designed to avoid common formatting issues that can break parsing.

No platform can guarantee a perfect ATS score for every employer system, but using clean structure plus role-specific tailoring gives you the best chance of a strong parse.
