FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can’t find your answer here? Browse all questions or get in touch.

Is Cvbuildly really free?

Yes. Building your resume, templates, AI assistance, and PDF downloads are all free. There’s no trial period or auto-renewing subscription, and we never ask for a credit card.

Will my PDF have a watermark?

No. Your downloaded PDF has no logo, watermark, or “demo” stamp.

Where is my data stored?

Your resume details are stored only in your own browser (localStorage); there is no resume database on our servers. You can optionally back up to your own Google Drive. When a PDF is created, your data is processed in memory only and never saved.

Are the templates ATS-friendly?

Yes. The templates output real text, not images, and headings and sections appear in an order applicant tracking systems (ATS) can read. Use the ATS analysis to see which keywords from a job posting are missing.

Can I download my resume as a Word file instead of a PDF?

Yes. You can download your resume as a PDF, a Word file (.docx) or plain text (.txt). We recommend the PDF for applications, since it is the format employers and ATS read most reliably; the Word file is handy if you want to keep editing elsewhere. You can also back up your data to Google Drive and keep editing later.

Do I need to sign up?

No. You can start right away without an account. Signing in with Google is only needed if you want to back up your resume to your own Drive.

CV or resume: what’s the difference?

Mostly the name. In the US and Canada people say resume; in the UK, Ireland, the EU and most of the world they say CV (curriculum vitae). In academia, a CV is a longer document that lists publications, teaching and research in full. Our builder makes both: a one- or two-page resume or a longer CV, exported as an A4 PDF.

Can I create my resume in another language?

Yes. Choose English, German, or Turkish as your resume language and the section headings switch to it. Write your content in the same language for applications in that market.
