Question 1

Is FreeResumeBuilder.app really free?

Accepted Answer

Yes! All features are completely free, including unlimited resume creation (up to 10 resumes), template selection, formatting options, and PDF downloads. There are no hidden fees, subscriptions, or premium tiers. We believe everyone should have access to professional resume-building tools.

Question 2

What is the resume limit and why is there a limit?

Accepted Answer

You can create up to 10 resumes per account. This limit helps maintain optimal performance and keeps your dashboard organized. You can always download PDFs of your resumes and delete old ones to make room for new ones. If you need more than 10 active resumes, consider downloading PDFs of completed resumes before deleting them.

Question 3

Does my resume auto-save?

Accepted Answer

Yes! Your resume automatically saves as you type. You can see the save status in the top-right corner of the builder. Changes are saved to the cloud, so you can access your resume from any device. You never have to worry about losing your work.

Question 4

What's the difference between templates?

Accepted Answer

Templates differ in layout, typography, color scheme, and overall design style. Some are more traditional and conservative (good for finance, law, etc.), while others are modern and creative (good for tech, design, etc.). All templates support the same content and formatting options. Choose the one that best matches your industry and personal style.

Question 5

Are my resumes private and secure?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. Your resumes are private and only accessible to you. We use industry-standard security measures to protect your data. Your resume content is stored securely and is never shared with third parties. You can delete your account and all associated data at any time.

Question 6

What browsers are supported?

Accepted Answer

FreeResumeBuilder.app works best on modern browsers including Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge. We recommend using the latest version of your browser for the best experience. The app is also mobile-friendly, though we recommend using a desktop or tablet for the best resume building experience.

Question 7

Can I use my resume for ATS (Applicant Tracking Systems)?

Accepted Answer

Yes! Our templates are designed to be ATS-friendly. The PDFs use standard fonts and clean formatting that can be easily parsed by ATS systems. However, we always recommend testing your resume PDF through an ATS checker if available, and some companies may prefer Word documents for ATS compatibility.

Question 8

Can I edit my resume after downloading the PDF?

Accepted Answer

PDFs are not directly editable, but you can always come back to FreeResumeBuilder.app to edit your resume and download a new PDF. Your resume data is saved in your account, so you can make changes at any time and generate updated PDFs.

Question 9

How do I delete my account?

Accepted Answer

You can permanently delete your account from Account Settings. This action cannot be undone and will delete all your resumes, account data, and preferences. Make sure to download PDFs of any resumes you want to keep before deleting your account.

Question 10

Can I change my template after creating a resume?

Accepted Answer

Yes! You can change your template at any time while editing your resume. Click the "Change Template" button in the builder to open the template selector. Note that changing templates will update the visual layout but preserve all your content. You may need to review your resume after switching to ensure everything looks good with the new design.
