Questions

Common questions.

Can't find your answer? Visit the help centre or contact us.

Which template is safest for ATS?

A simple single-column layout is a practical starting point when the employer gives no format instructions. Our template labels describe structure, not compatibility certification. Check the downloaded file and any parsed fields shown by the application system.

Will my PDF look exactly like the preview?

The builder preview and PDF use the same rendering engine. Still inspect the downloaded file, including page breaks, font rendering, links and any content near the margins.

Can I switch templates after I have written everything?

Anytime, as often as you like. Your content and the layout are fully separate, so switching reflows the same words into a new structure instantly. Nothing is retyped.

Can I change the colours?

Yes. Every template takes any accent colour, or none at all for pure black and white. The accent sits on top of the structure as a separate choice.

Can I keep my resume to one page?

The builder auto-fits your content and shows the page count live. If you are slightly over, it tightens spacing to hold one page; if there is genuinely too much, it tells you and moves you to two pages cleanly instead of cramming. You can also switch between A4, US Letter, and A3.

Are any of these too creative for a conservative employer?

Choose restrained typography and clear headings when the application calls for a formal document. Use columns or a stronger visual treatment only when they help organise the content. The vacancy’s instructions matter more than a template’s name.

Should my resume include a photo?

Follow the employer’s instructions and relevant local guidance. A photograph is optional in the builder, and you do not need one to use a template.

Do I have to build each template from scratch?

No. Switching templates reuses the resume content you have already entered or drafted from your Career Story. Check the resulting order and page breaks before exporting.

What do I download, and can I edit it later?

You download a PDF with selectable text. Your saved resume remains editable in the builder. Check the employer’s accepted file types and inspect how its application form reads the document.
