Frequently asked questions

Will this pass Workday / Greenhouse / Lever?

These templates use a single-column, plain-text-friendly layout (no tables, text boxes, or graphics) so common ATS parsers can extract contact info, skills, and bullets. Always paste your final file into the free matcher with the job description to catch wording gaps.

Is it really free?

Yes. All three levels (Entry level, Junior, Senior) are free to preview, copy, and download as Word (.docx) or .txt — no signup required.

Should I use “HR Manager” or “Human Resources Manager” on my resume?

Match the exact wording in the job posting — ATS keyword matching is literal. Both terms are covered in this template's keyword checklist; use whichever one the posting uses in your header and summary.

Word or Google Docs?

Download the .docx for Microsoft Word, or open the same file in Google Docs (File → Open). Prefer .txt or a text-based PDF when a portal warns about complex formatting.
