A while ago, I remember coming across a cool looking online resume builder that allowed you to save your resume online but I can't find it. Anyone know of some cool online resume builders?
Hi,
my name is Katherine and I built the really easy-to-use resume builder. You can create your resume, save data, and download the PDF file without registration.
But with registration it's better: you will able to create multiple profiles and therefore, generate multiple resumes.
Why did I create it?
First of all, it's a part of my experiment where I wanted to build really simple, one-function tools to solve some problems. I have a list (now it has more than 20 ideas) of such small tools. I picked up this one because it what bothered me for a long time.
Since I'm a software developer with 17+ years of experience I had to apply for a job many times and creating a resume specifically for every single position was a real pain. So, I thought that maybe other developers have the same problem. Also, I'm going to add some functionality for keeping the information about applications and other features like export to Word, automatic applying etc. (yeah, it's much beyond one function but it still tries to relieve a bit the process of searching and applying for jobs).
So, this is my story. I'd like to hear from folks here what you think about it.
Does it worth to keep working on it?
Do you think you have another, more significant problem to be solved in this scope?
Do you have any suggestions?
I am actually working on web app that walks you through building a solid resume based on my own UX opinions. Then at the end you can print out the pdf.
This is my resume (rather outdated now) and my opinionated design. http://resume.kristoffersen.io
Thoughts on a resume builder web app? Want to see one exist?
Do you mean generate it based on a LinkedIn profile? That’s something I may add in the future. I don’t use LinkedIn, I thought they already have a resume generator, is that true?
Last time this was brought up someone said, well yeah it's a resume builder. And get a job with it, then work on it at work. That's why they hired you, you're the xxxx guy.
I want to do a quick holiday side project and thought I'd make a online resume builder.(Yes, I know there are thousands already, but I want to build one that's slightly different, and won't harass you for your email before giving you your resume.)
What I want to know is what do you, person responsible for sifting through these things, want to see when going through resumes?
What format, how much information, what information... Things like that? What pisses you off about a resume, what makes you appreciate it?
I basically want to make a kickass resume-making service that both applicants and hiring managers would appreciate. There's more secret sauce to my idea, of course, but I want to focus on the resumes first and foremost.

A couple of years ago I started using LinkedIn's resume builder [1]. It takes my existing LinkedIn profile information and generates a nice-looking PDF in one of several user-selectable formats. I tweaked my profile information so that it looks decent in resume style. That satisfies 99% of my need for resumes -- and besides, most of the time anyone who asks for it has already looked at my LinkedIn profile anyway, and probably only wants a PDF as something to put in their file.
I may just lack imagination, but I am struggling a bit to see the niche for the linked tool vs using LinkedIn (lower effort, consumes existing data) or a downloadable template (high/same effort, but more customizable and no leaked PII).
