Although a resume is a one or two-page document, it is very important. It is the first thing that an HR executive of a firm sees before emailing or calling you for the interview. If the resume is poorly written or doesn’t have enough information about yourself or your skills, your application will be rejected or the HR will not go through the entire CV. To impress the HR, you can either hire someone to build a resume or use one of the following applications:
Resume Builder App Free CV Maker
RBAF displays twelve tabs that ask you to enter the following details:
- Contact information
- Academic details.
- Work experience.
- Projects, etc.
When you select a tab, the application displays several text fields. You should fill the text boxes to make sure that your resume is complete. The information you enter in the textbox is nothing but the answers to the questions the HR executive may have asked you if you were sitting right in front of him/her.
When you tap the “Generate” tab, RBAF will prompt you to enable storage access permission for it. Once you grant it the permission, RBAF will display the following two formats:
- Classic
- Color
Once you select your preferred format, tap the format button. RBAF will now show your resume. If you had left any of the required fields blank, the application will ask you to fill it.
