Frequently asked questions

What do I get when I download?

Two editable Microsoft Word (.docx) files: a designed version with a polished layout, and an ATS-optimized version in a clean single-column format. Open either in Word, Google Docs, or Pages and replace the sample content with your own.

Which version should I use — designed or ATS?

Use the ATS version when applying through an online portal or applicant tracking system (most company career sites), since simple single-column layouts parse most reliably. Use the designed version for direct emails, recruiters, networking, or printing, where a polished look helps.

Is it really ATS-friendly?

Yes. The ATS version uses a single-column structure, standard section headings, real text (no images or text boxes), and standard fonts — the formatting applicant tracking systems read most reliably.

What are the italic tips inside the template?

Each section includes a short italic coaching tip (e.g. how to use the STAR method and quantify results). They show you how to write a strong resume — just delete each tip line once you have written your own content.

Can I use it for any job or company?

Yes — it is a starting structure with sample content you replace. For a version tailored to a specific job description using your real experience, use ResumePro to customize it in seconds.
