4. Customize design elements like the fonts, color, and spacing (if you want).

5. Choose a pricing plan and download your new resume in your preferred file format.

You can even use our database of pre-written content to add exactly the right phrasing in every section — just click the button to fill it in.

Yes, it is free to download your resume as a TXT file. You can use the resume builder for free, download a TXT version, and then paste the content into one of our free resume template designs if you're looking to avoid paying for our service.

If you want to save time and download your resume directly from the builder as a Word or PDF file (and access other features, like our premium job board), you can choose a paid plan starting at $2.95.

To use the $2.95 trial without renewing, simply cancel your subscription before the 14-day trial period ends.

You can cancel your Resume Genius subscription by logging in to your account, going to “My Account,” then “My Subscription,” and selecting “Cancel Subscription.”

It just takes a few minutes, and helps ensure your subscription won't renew and you won’t be charged.
