Frequently Asked Questions about CV Maker

What is a CV builder?

Online CV builder helps you create a CV clearly and professionally, regardless of your skills or background. It guides you throughout the whole process of CV making, asks for necessary information, and provides you with a well-formatted and designed document at the end.

A proper builder will send you CV tips along the way and help you adjust fonts and CV margins to make your CV layout smooth and clean.

Creating a CV with a builder is a much faster process than doing it manually, and you'll usually have your application ready in just a few minutes.

What's the best online CV maker?

ResumeLab ranks among the best CV makers on the UK market. It has everything you need to create a job-winning application:

On top of that, we offer 200+ CV examples with detailed how-to guides prepared by hiring experts to serve you as inspiration when building your CV.

How do I make my own CV?

Writing a CV is not as hard as it sounds—you can actually have it ready in minutes if you use the proper tools. With our CV builder, you can let go of writer's block and awkward sentences, thanks to built-in tips and content suggestions. It’ll also keep your document easy to read and scan.

Alternatively, you can make a CV in a standard Word or Google Docs file, but bear in mind CV formatting details, such as using proper CV margins and the best CV fonts and keeping the whole CV layout cohesive.

Regardless of your choice, start with our comprehensive guide on how to write a CV.

Can I make a CV on my phone?

Unlike popular programs such as Microsoft Word, where creating a CV online is problematic, our CV generator works seamlessly across all mobile devices. You will get the same set of features as in the desktop version of our CV maker app. That means you can create and download your CV in minutes.

What should I include in a CV in 2024?

Put your best foot forward and highlight your professional experience and strengths. However, don’t forget about the basic yet essential information. Here’s a list of things you should put on your CV:

  • Your contact information—such as your name, phone number, and email address
  • CV summary or CV objective—depending on your experience level, a brief statement about your background and aspirations
  • Work experience—a reverse-chronological list of places you worked at along with your biggest achievements
  • Education section—unless you apply for an academic position, your most recent degree will be enough
  • Skills section—a list of skills, including both soft and hard abilities
  • Volunteer work—to showcase your motivation and interests
  • Hobbies and interests—a list with hobbies and interests that can confirm your skills or achievements
  • Languages—to prove your communication skill set
  • Awards and achievements—mention your accolades and recognitions

It comes with a caveat, though, that everything you include on your CV must be relevant to the job you’re after.

What is the best CV format for the UK?

The most popular CV format on the UK market is the reverse-chronological format. It works across all types of jobs and industries, showing your experience and achievements from the most recent and working backwards.

This way, you can put your most prominent experience and achievements at the top of the page. Plus, hiring managers prefer this format because it makes their work easier. They can easily skim your CV and see if you have what it takes for the job. It also makes your CV ATS-friendly, so no recruitment software will have any problems processing it.

Are there any CV templates I can use?

Yes, our CV maker comes with 21 professional CV templates that you can use. Each has been created by experienced career professionals who teamed up with graphic designers to ensure the highest quality.

Alternatively, you can check our list of dedicated Word CV Templates or Google Docs CV Templates. They are free to use, but be aware of any potential CV mistakes that may happen when you create a CV.

Is ResumeLab a free CV creator?

Our CV creator is free-to-use. You can test all of our features and create an unlimited number of CVs and cover letters. Once you are satisfied with the result and want to download the file, you can start a 14-day full access trial that costs only a few pounds.

Do you have CV examples I can use?

Yes! We have over 200 CV examples that career professionals created for you so that you can use them without any limitations. Keep in mind, though, that you always need to tailor the sample to the job you’re pursuing instead of just copying and pasting everything from it. Our CV examples list covers many different jobs and industries, for example, a teacher CV, a nursing CV, a dishwasher CV, and many more.

Should I also create a cover letter for my CV?

Yes, yes, and yes. A cover letter can increase your chances of getting a job interview immensely. Our study shows cover letters are important and can make up when your resume falls short. Hence our CV maker allows you to create a cover letter with a matching cover letter template. If you haven’t written a cover letter yet, follow our step-by-step guide on how to write a cover letter.
