I utilised Zety's builder app to the fullest, applying everything I learned, and even added some unique touches the CV software offered. Now, instead of stressing over what keyword or language to use on my CV, I can focus on which job offer to accept.

David Birdsell Jr. Client's avatar

I went from fired to hired in less than 3 weeks. I was let go from my old job due to downsizing. With Zety, I was able to build custom CVs tailored to the jobs I was applying to quickly and easily. My last day was 3/9/18 and I had several offers by 3/25/18. Accepted an excellent job on 3/27/18. I can't thank you guys enough. You really helped save my family from some serious hardship.

I have been actively looking for my first job for about 3 months now and I just came to know about Zety last month. The online CV builder helped me a lot by choosing themes and contents. I was able to land a few interviews after I edited my CV.

Frequently Asked Questions about Zety CV Builder

What is a CV creator?

A high-end CV maker will also guide you through the writing process, providing expert tips and suggestions and ensuring you add the right contents to your document. Below you can find all of Zety’s CV builder features:

  • Feature-rich CV builder.
  • Cover letter builder.
  • From basic to creative CV templates.
  • Built-in content and suggestions: ready-made phrases tailored to your job title that you can drag and drop onto your CV.
  • Cloud storage for an unlimited number of documents, so you can edit your CV as many times as you want, on any device, and save a copy each time.
  • The option to upload your old CV and give it a quick makeover rather than starting from scratch.

Who is the Zety CV maker for?

The Zety CV maker is a tool that anyone can use. If you’re tired of formatting a CV in a word processor or are pressed for time, then Zety’s here to help with an easy-to-use interface and tons of useful tips that will put you a cut above your competition. We’ve heard success stories from job seekers in all industries: interns, entry-level staff, mid-level staff, all the way up to managing directors.

Do I need to make a unique CV for each job application?

It’s good practice to tailor your CV to a specific job application to show the employer that you meet all their requirements and that you are the perfect candidate for the job. Even though you probably apply for similar positions, each company is looking for slightly different experience and skill sets. But don’t worry, Zety provides you with hundreds of CV examples that give you an idea of what is expected for a specific position and with various lists of skills to put on your CV. See some of them below:

Can I make a CV on my phone?

Yes, you can create a CV on your phone. However, writing a CV in mobile versions of Microsoft Word, Apple’s Pages, or Google Docs would be challenging because it’s hard to spot any typos and do the formatting on a small screen. It’s much easier to use Zety’s CV builder, available on all mobile devices.

What format can I download my CV in?

Zety supports all the most popular printable CV formats: .txt, .pdf, and .doc, although we recommend a PDF rather than Word CV format because it is the most ATS-friendly option. Plus, PDFs preserve your formatting and look just as good on any device and screen size.

Does Zety have a cover letter builder?

Yes, Zety is a suite of tools that help you create all of your job application documents, including cover letters. Our builder offers 20+ cover letter templates to match your CV design. If you would like to tailor your cover letter to a specific job offer, one of our cover letter examples will help you achieve this goal.

Can Zety CV builder be trusted?

According to 3,000+ reviews on Trustpilot, Zety is an excellent CV-building tool. Users are particularly keen on its variety of accessible professional CV templates. Over 1,000,000 users have already picked the Cascade template, the most popular of our CV designs. You can learn more about us on the About Zety page. The application is safe thanks to a secure SSL HTTPS encrypted connection. Your data is processed according to stringent policies you can learn more about in the terms of use, privacy policy, and cookie policy.

Is Zety CV builder free?

In the Zety CV builder, it is free to create a CV. The app follows the “try before you buy, pay when satisfied” credo—you pay once you’re satisfied with the results. Downloading a printable CV as a pdf or MS Word .doc file from Zety costs just £1.79 for two-week access. Pricing may vary depending on the plan and subscription.
