  1. Erica J (verified owner) –

    Switching fields from accounting to teaching, I needed some help redoing my resume. The career change templates helped me highlight applicable skills that I gained from my previous field and market them to segue into teaching. I’ve always just sort of moved from job to job quickly. The free job & resume guide that came with the templates helped me slow down and really figure out my next career move based on my interests & strengths. Definitely worth the money!

  2. Tyler Quinlan (verified owner) –

    I had to stop working due to COVID to homeschool and now I’m starting to apply for jobs again in my field of accounting. Figuring out how to update and organize my resume was SO stressful to put it mildly. I used the functional / combination templates and it was super easy to highlight my applicable skills while de-emphasizing my one-year gap. The templates even have prompts and examples so it makes it super easy to plug in your own information. It only took me an hour to update my resume, versus how much time I would have spend on my own (probably days) trying to figure out what to write! Highly recommended!

  3. Ray B (verified owner) –

    I highly recommend this excellent set of resume tools. I am searching for a new job and needed help creating a resume. This set of tools not only gave me an easy to complete professional looking resume, but also the templates for a cover letter, references page and follow up letter. It even contains a guide for finding a job. This is a complete set of tools for a low cost and I highly recommend it.

  4. Shirley B (verified owner) –

    A user friendly template for everyone. It not only saves you time, but takes the angst out of writing your resume. It will be my “go to” when applying for a new job, getting back into the workforce or changing careers.

  28. Alexandra Beattie (verified owner) –

    These packages are such a valuable item. My old resume was boring and untidy, and with a brand new path ahead of me, I have a lot more important things I need to do than sitting down and figuring out the right setup for a resume and cover letter. But the look DOES matter. My eye was drawn to this softer template that fits beautifully with my aesthetic and portfolio. This package was easy to download to my Mac, came straight up as a Word doc, and so helpful and a breeze to edit with the prompts. I feel way more confident than ever sending out my resume and portfolio, while at the same time dealing with life-stuff. This just takes some weight off your shoulders so you can focus on the contents and not the agonizing formatting. Thank you!!

    I genuinely cannot reccommend this template enough – it is a fabulous resume template. Not only does it come with everything you need (even the Thank You letter), but it’s easy to read, re-write to highlight your skills, and even to re-format where needed. The resume and the cover letter templates really assist you in crafting a well-written and ATS-friendly CV. I am currently in the market to change careers and this template and guide assisted me in thinking about what skills are transferrable and how they match with the job listing I’m applying for. I applied for a role with one of my “dream” companies and within two hours of applying, I received an invitation for a phone interview. The seller is also wonderful. Lee checked in with me just a few days after I had purchased the template. 10/10 would recommend.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I change the template font and color?

Yes! As we provide editable Microsoft word docs, you can easily change the font and the color of the border or text.

How do I use your resume and cover letter templates?

Simple! You simply download the files and then fill in your information. Use our built in tips to help you through the process.

If you have any questions, feel free to reach out. We would be happy to help write your resume or provide consulting services for tricky situations.

What if I need a three page or longer resume?

Once you purchase a template package, if you need more pages we can provide you with a third or fourth page if needed at no additional cost.

What is the file type?

The template files are in Microsoft Word (docx) format.

All, sans the modern template, are also compatible with Google docs and Pages for Mac (depending on your IOS version).

What will I receive with my purchase?

Depending on which package you selected, you will receive all applicable template files (resume, cover letter, thank you letter, references) and the career guide.

What’s the difference between the one and two page resume templates?

The one page template is for candidates with less experience and features a skills and qualifications section at the top with a work experience and education section underneath.

The two page resume template is for candidates who have more experience and/or are more advanced in their career. It features the same sections as the one page template, but with longer sections.

Why should I use a resume template?

Question:

Given the rise of ChatGPT and other AI tools, why should you even use a resume template?

Answer:

While ChatGPT can provide you with content that you can carefully edit and patch together, it will not provide a visually appealing, organized resume. If the goal is landing interviews, there is much more to the story
