Seems like a cool product, but resumes and “autopilot” are the wrong approach this era. You should make something that helps people skip the resume pile entirely!!
Tomas Ondrejka
Hey @pocketfreud! That's what we do! First, we had a data analyst analyze how you use our resume templates. We asked questions like: Do people in different industries prefer different templates? What customization options do they most frequently use? And so on. Based on this information, we had a typographer (his name is Martin and he’s got an incredibly keen eye for detail) redesign all our templates. He adjusted the typefaces, line heights, spacing and margins, and all the little details that make text easily readable and beautiful to look at. We are also working on a ''resume optimisation'' which will help you to use right keywords in your resume to get selected by ATSs.

This is really cool, old school resumes are so outdated. Any chance it also lets you host your resume on your own domain instead of just getting PDFs?
Peter Duris
@husseinyahfoufi Hi Hussein, yes you can create a URL web resume, just by one click. And if you wanna go even further you can change your resume to a personal website. Kickresume also lets you to select and customise 5 different personal resume websites. (Website templates will recieve an update very soon)

I have been using Kickresume for several years now. This product always helped me save time writing and updating my resumes. The new update is beyond anything I could ever ask from a resume builder. I love the endless possibilities in resume designs on this app. With every new job interview I always got praised for my resume. Can't recommend Kickresume enough! 🔥

Tomas Ondrejka

Upvoted. As a military veteran, this would have been SOO useful as I was transitioning to the civilian workforce. Worth marketing to those in the military! I have already shared the link with several transitioning vets!
Tomas Ondrejka
@robert_thelen thank you! Many of our users are veterans. That's why one of the new features will be a resume analytics which can help veterans with transitioning to the civilian workforce.

This looks cool and all but what’s the point in having a nicely looking resume if it’s gonna get chewed up by an ATS anyway? If anything, all these flashy graphical elements will probably send my resume straight to the bin (or whatever is its digital equivalent these days).
Tomas Ondrejka
@jakubbloksa Whoa, okay, those are some valid points. Let me address them one by one. Yes, it’s true that most big companies use some type of applicant tracking system. And yes, it’s also true that you can overdo it with graphical elements on your resume and that can make an ATS give it a lower score. But that’s not the case with resumes created with Kickresume. We’re working closely with an enthusiastic bunch of HR professionals and recruiters who provide us with behind-the-scenes insight into how companies actually hire new talent. We also regularly test our templates against the most widely used ATSs out there. In this way, we can ensure that our all resume templates are ATS compliant and don’t get “chewed up”. Finally, ATSs are far less scary than you might think. In most cases, you have nothing to fear as long as you pack your resume with a good mix of relevant keywords. (Oh, and by the way, not all companies use them. Take Tesla, for instance. They still review every single application by hand.)
