Make this layout work for you

Keep the visual emphasis on your name and section headings while letting the content explain your technical or creative contribution. Use the projects section for work that adds evidence beyond your job titles. Include a relevant portfolio or repository link when it is appropriate to share, and make sure the link opens correctly. Name technologies in the context of the work rather than listing every tool you have encountered.

Software project example

For a team project, a bounded contribution could be: “Built keyboard-accessible navigation for a course planning application and documented the component behavior.” Explain your actual role, the technology you used and what you delivered. Do not imply ownership of the entire application if you developed one part.

Before you send your resume

  1. Check the content. Remove every bracketed prompt and unused section. Read names, dates, contact details and job titles separately from the rest of the text; familiar information can be easy to overlook when proofreading.
  2. Check the document. Open the exported file and look for headings left at the bottom of a page, clipped lines and unexpected spacing. Test your links and confirm that the text can be selected. Keep an editable copy for your next application.
  3. Check the application instructions. Use the file type and naming convention the employer requests. Review any fields filled from your uploaded resume before submitting; a readable template does not guarantee that every application system will interpret every field correctly.

Questions, answered

Can I change the headings and fonts?

Yes. The file uses normal editable paragraphs and styles. Keep headings descriptive, text readable, and the final document consistent.

Is this the same as a template inside the Resumize app?

This is a standalone document template. You can use it independently in Word or Google Docs. The app has its own templates and AI tailoring workflow.
