Free resume builder that screening software can read
Two-column templates with icons look good to people and can turn into scrambled text in applicant tracking systems. And many builders let you write for free, then charge for the download. Here you get five plain one-column templates that parse cleanly, and the PDF and the Word file are free. Fill in the form, watch the page update, download. Everything stays in this browser: no account, nothing is uploaded.

What makes a resume get read
One page, plain layout
Screening software reads simple single-column text best. That is the layout you get here.
Results, not duties
“Cut page load time from 4s to 1.2s” says more than “responsible for performance”.
The posting’s own words
If the job asks for PostgreSQL and you know it, write PostgreSQL, not “databases”.
