Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about building a resume with CV‑Craftor.

Is CV‑Craftor really free?

Yes. You can create, edit, preview, and download a resume for free. A Pro plan removes ads and the small promotional watermark and unlocks instant downloads, but the core resume builder is free to use.


Are the resume templates ATS‑friendly?

Yes. Every CV‑Craftor template uses clean, single‑flow structure and standard fonts so applicant tracking systems can parse your details correctly. We also offer a dedicated ATS‑friendly text export.


Can I export my resume to PDF and Word?

Yes. You can export a designed PDF, an ATS‑friendly text PDF, a Word (.doc) document, and plain text — all in one click.


Do I need to create an account?

You need a free account to save and manage your resumes across sessions. You can sign up with email or with Google, Facebook, or X.


Can I import my existing CV?

Yes. Upload an existing PDF or Word CV and CV‑Craftor extracts your details — name, contact info, experience, education, and skills — to pre‑populate the builder. Your file is processed in your browser and never uploaded to a server.


Is my data private?

Your resume content is stored against your account so you can edit it later, and CV import happens entirely in your browser. See our Privacy Policy for full details on data and cookies.


How many resumes can I create?

As many as you like. Keeping a tailored version per job is one of the best ways to get more interviews, and CV‑Craftor keeps version history so you can restore an earlier draft.


Can I share my resume with a link?

Yes. You can generate a shareable public link (with a QR code) so recruiters can view your resume online without a file attachment.


What makes a good resume in 2026?

A clear reverse‑chronological layout, a tailored professional summary, achievement‑driven bullet points with numbers, and keywords matched to the job description. Our resume guide walks through it step by step.
