What you get

  • Live on-page editing — click any text and type, paginated like the final PDF
  • Selectable-text PDF export with clickable email and portfolio links
  • AI import: upload your old resume PDF and land in this template, editable
  • Scored 84/100 — good against the 30 published rules, measured by exporting this exact template. That sits in the good band (70+), not the interview-ready one — this design leans toward human readers, so use it where a person opens your resume first and keep a single-column version for portals.

Frequently asked questions

Is CVLoom really free?

Yes — editing, all 283 templates, and PDF download are free, with no watermark and no card. There is no account at all: no signup, no login, nothing to cancel.

Will my PDF have selectable text for ATS systems?

Yes. Exports are generated by a real browser engine, so the PDF has true selectable text, embedded fonts, and clickable links — the things resume parsers need.

Can I switch templates without retyping anything?

Yes — your content and the design are stored separately, so switching templates re-flows the same content instantly and losslessly. Try every one of them.

Should designers put their portfolio on the resume?

Front and center — it's the first thing reviewers open. This template gives the header two link slots (site + Behance/Dribbble) and they stay clickable in the exported PDF.
