About us
We write resumes one job title at a time.
Most resume sites sell you a layout and leave the hard part, the writing, to you. We went the other way. Every one of our 498 templates is written for a single job title, by people who have hired into that role, and checked line by line against how applicant tracking software reads a page.
The numbers, as they are
These come from the trading period before this site launched, when the same templates were sold elsewhere. We have not rounded them up and we have not invented any of them.

Why this exists
Search for a resume template and you get thousands of layouts. Two columns, a photo, a skills bar that fills to eighty percent of nothing. What you almost never get is the sentences. You are still sitting in front of an empty work experience section at eleven at night, trying to describe four years of your own life in six bullet points.
That is the part that takes the weekend, and that is the part nobody was selling. So we built the opposite product: the writing finished, the layout deliberately boring, and the job title on the front of it rather than a style name.
The wording for each role is drafted and reviewed by people who have hired into it, then checked against how applicant tracking systems parse a page. Where a role needs a licence number, a ratio, a caseload or a quota, the template asks for it, because those are the details that decide whether a human ever sees the page.
We start from the job, not the layout
Before a single line is written we read the adverts. What the role is screened on, the words that keep appearing, the numbers hiring managers ask for. The page is then built around that, which is why a welder template and a financial analyst template do not read alike.
Every bullet is written four times
At one, two, five and ten or more years, because the same achievement is described differently at each stage. You keep the tier that is yours and delete the rest, which is how one product covers a first job and a fifteen year career without pretending to.
Plain formatting, on purpose
Single column, standard headings, real selectable text, Calibri throughout. No tables, no sidebars, no icons. A designed page looks better on your screen and worse on the recruiter software that reads it first, and we would rather you got read than admired.
Numbers stay in brackets
Every figure on the page arrives as [X] rather than a plausible invention. Nothing is a claim until you make it one. It is a small decision that keeps the product honest and keeps you out of an interview defending a number you never earned.
Four things we will not do
Plenty of sites in this market do all four. Saying so out loud is the easiest way to explain what kind of company this is.
- Promise you an interviewNobody can. Hiring depends on the market, the shortlist and a person you have never met. What a template can do is stop you being filtered out for reasons that have nothing to do with your ability.
- Quote an ATS pass rateNo applicant tracking system publishes a score, so any percentage you see on a resume site was invented. We tell you the formatting rules we follow and why, and leave it there.
- Invent your achievementsEvery number arrives in brackets for you to fill in. We will not put a plausible figure on your page and hope nobody asks about it in the interview.
- Put you on a subscriptionOne payment, no renewal, no account required, no trial that quietly converts. If you never come back, the files still work.
