Remember when crafting the perfect resume entailed sitting at your computer for hours, using the perfect action verbs and nitpicking the formatting? Sadly, much of that process has remained unchanged for decades, but formatting is getting a bit easier, with tools like LinkedIn’s Resume Builder. The tool enables LinkedIn users to craft resumes by simply choosing a template and customizing the content. Turn your LinkedIn Profile into a beautiful resume in seconds. No more messing around with multiple Word and PDF documents scattered all over the computer.
Pick one of twelve resume templates, customize the content, and print and share the result to your heart’s content:
- Pick a resume template that best suits your style: classic, modern, business, executive, law and more.
- Your resume content is automatically fetched from your LinkedIn profile, so you can customize it as much as you want. You can also pick which sections (summary, specialties, experience, education, etc) to include and in what order.
- Export your resume as a PDF and print it any time. Also, each resume gets a custom link that you can share with others via email, LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter, etc.
“It’s incredibly easy to use, and I was very impressed with the number of different resume formats available. Keep in mind, the quality of the resume is directly attributed to the quality of information on your profile. If people want to take full advantage of this feature, they will need to keep their profiles updated regularly with the information they ultimately want on their resumes.”
If updating your resume in Microsoft Word, again and again, is one of the monotonous tasks you’d like to shake, we can help you with Resume Builder as you launch your search or the next time an update is needed. It’s as simple as converting the content of you LinkedIn profile into a sleek and customized resume.
