How to write a resume?

If you're not sure about how to write the individual sections of your resume, you can visit our Help Center , read the ultimate resume guide , or click the chameleon icon inside the app.

How to make your resume stand out?

It comes down to two things: design & content . Kickresume can help with both.

• First, give your resume an eye-catching yet professional look. The easiest way to do that is to use a resume builder and pick a professionally designed template that fits your industry and profession. All of these are visually appealing and ATS-friendly.
• Second, write your resume in a way that emphasizes your strongest points. With Kickresume, we want to make your life easier, which is why our features let you:
• Assemble the first draft of your resume just by clicking. We’ve got more than 20,000 pre-written phrases for more than 3,200 jobs. Simply start editing your resume, click “Add Phrases”, look up your job title, and choose relevant phrases.

• Use Kickresume's AI resume writer which will generate a relevant work experience section for a specific job title. Watch your resume write itself.

What is a cover letter?

Your cover letter is a one-page document that you attach to your resume as part of your job application. It can take many forms: the text inside the body of your job application email, a filled out website form, or a standalone document.

The purpose of a cover letter is to:

• Introduce yourself to your future potential employer;
• Illustrate your background;
• Explain why the offered position would be a good fit for you;
• And explain why you would be a good fit for the company.

In a cover letter, you have a unique chance to present yourself, show your personality, and add details that one cannot fit into a structured resume. Finally, a well-written cover letter is an opportunity to distinguish yourself from other applicants and increase your chances of landing an interview.

If you dread having to spend time writing one, let our AI Cover Letter Builder make one for you or get inspired by 1,250+ cover letter examples from real people.

If you'd like to know more, read our comprehensive expert guide: What Is a Cover Letter and How to Write One?

How to create a cover letter?

With Kickresume, there’s nothing easier. Simply log in to your account, click “ Create Cover Letter ” and choose from 3 options:

• You can pick from a large number of cover letter templates that match your resume design and customize your new cover letter in every possible way.
• Alternatively, check our 1250+ job-specific cover letter samples , pick the one you like, and tweak the details to make it more you.
• And, if you dread having to spend time writing one, let our AI Cover Letter Writer make one for you.

How does the AI Resume Writer work?

Kickresume’s AI Resume Writer is able to generate a work experience section based on a provided job title.

All you have to do is:

• Sign up or log in to your Kickresume account. When logged in, on the dashboard scroll down to Your Documents and click on Create New.
• When filling in the Work Experience section, enter your job title, click “ Use AI Writer ” and the AI will generate a number of bullet points for your work experience subsection.
• If you don't like these bullet points, you can either edit them or delete them and click the button again.
• If you like the bullet points but feel like that section is still too short, simply click the button again and the AI will add more phrases to it.

Our AI Resume Builder is easy to use, generates unique resumes every time, and uses natural language indistinguishable from resumes written by human writers.

What is the best AI Resume Builder?

Definitely Kickresume's AI Resume Builder . Here are the reasons why:

• Kickresume AI Resume Builder is based on OpenAI’s GPT-3 neural network, which is the world's most powerful natural language processing model .
• The texts produced by this language model are indistinguishable from texts written by human writers.
• Each resume that is produced by our AI Resume Builder is unique and custom-built for you.

What is an AI Cover Letter Builder?

Kickresume’s AI cover letter writer is powered by OpenAI’s GPT-3 natural language processing model. It can generate role-specific cover letters that look and feel a lot like cover letters written by real people.

On the other hand, it has its own limitations. Artificial intelligence doesn’t know you. It cannot tell your story the way you’d be able to.

That's why you should use this cover letter writer with caution. Nevertheless, it can produce a decent-enough cover letter that you can use as your first draft in case you’re struggling with writer’s block. However, remember to edit your AI-generated cover letter and make it more you.

Learn more about the AI cover letter writer or try it out for yourself and generate your cover letter .

How does an AI Cover Letter Builder work?

Simply enter your most recent job title, press the “Use AI Writer” button and the AI writer will generate a cover letter for you.

If you don’t like that cover letter, simply press the button again. It will generate another set of sentences or rewrite the cover letter from scratch.

Let your resume do the work.

Is it worth paying for a resume builder.

The short answer is — it depends. There are plenty of free simple resume builders like this one, which hooks you up with all the features you need to resume. But if you want something extra, say a resume review by a professional writer or a bigger choice of templates, paying extra may be worth it.

Freesumes.com offers a 100% free resume builder that doesn’t require any account registration, social logins, or credit card details. It provides six simple resume templates and a step-by-step resume customization tool.

Why is your resume builder free?

Because it shouldn’t cost a fortune to apply for a job. Some search for a new job because they want career growth or a better work-life balance. Others are driven by necessity. We don’t want any candidate to feel disadvantaged because they can’t afford to pay for a professional resume design service. Consider this our small contribution to battling inequality.

Have Questions About Writing A Perfect Resume?

Resume Templates FAQ

Is Resume Build the best resume builder?

Are you after a resume builder that is: a) proven to help score jobs at the world’s best companies, b) quick, easy, and affordable to use, and c) equipped with HR-approved resume templates and pre-written job description bullet points?

If you answered “Yes,” then you’ll understand why thousands of job seekers believe that Resume Build is the best resume builder on the market. 

Our online resume maker is designed to help job seekers just like you to create a professional resume in mere minutes. 

Considering that many other options—particularly free resume builders— are incredibly clunky and difficult to use, this is no easy feat. Worse still, many of our competitors’ offerings simply spit out generic resumes that aren’t formatted or written to be HR-friendly.

These are a few of the many reasons why so many people have turned to Resume Build to help them transform their job prospects.

Can I build my resume for free using this resume builder?

Are you wondering “Can I really build my resume for free with Resume Build’s resume software?” or “Is this a free resume builder?” The answer is that it’s free to try. Once you sign up, you’ll also gain access to plenty of free resume templates, free resume job description bullet points, and free resume tips to help you create an unforgettable resume.

What’s the best resume template to use?

The truth of the matter is that there isn’t just one template to suit everyone. That’s why we provide a wide variety of professionally made resume templates to ensure that there’s something to suit each person’s unique situation, goals, and aesthetic preferences.

When browsing resume templates in our resume template library, it’s always helpful to keep in mind the message you want to send to hiring managers about yourself. If you’re still stuck, here’s a quick guide that will help you make the right choice:

• Do you want to appear creative and cutting-edge? Opt for the Cool or Awesome template. 
• Do you want hiring managers to focus on your professionalism? The Professional or Contemporary template will do the trick. 
• Do you want to play it safe with a more standard template? Try the Simple or Modern resume template.

What should I include on my resume?

There are a number of key pieces of information that you need to include in your resume. The following six resume sections cover the most pertinent information hiring managers are looking for:

• Contact information: Your name, address, phone number, and email address.
• A Resume Summary or Resume Objective: A section that succinctly conveys why you’re a standout candidate for the given position.  
• Employment history: An overview of your most relevant professional experiences, with an emphasis on your key achievements. 
• Education: Provide details about your degree or diploma.
• Training and certifications: Note any training courses and certifications that are relevant to the job here.
• Skills: List both hard (technical) skills and soft (interpersonal) skills you offer. 

But before you get writing, keep in mind that you will need to tailor your resume to the given role you are applying for. 

A simple rule of thumb is to stop thinking, “I can build my resume in a way that lets me apply to any position I want,” and start thinking, “I need to build my resume in a way that highlights how suitable I am for the specific position I’m after.”

This simple switch in thinking will help you to address the precise qualities a hiring manager is after. Remember, hiring managers look to your resume to see if you’re an ideal fit for the specific role they’re hiring for. So if your resume is too generic, they’ll simply think, “Next!”

That’s why it’s vital to analyze the advertisement of the role you want for keywords that indicate what the hiring manager is after. Once you identify these keywords, you should integrate any that are relevant to you throughout each of the sections we mentioned above.

How long should my resume be?

The length of your resume will depend on how long you have been working for. Our experts recommend one page for every 10 years of work. 

So if you’re a high school or college student, wish to apply for an internship, or have 10 years or fewer of professional experience, a one page resume will be sufficient. However, if you have been working for 10 or more years, you may add a page for every decade you’ve been in the workforce.

How should I format my resume?

The resume format you choose can influence the way a hiring manager perceives your job application. While there are a handful of different resume formats to choose from, the good news is that there’s one that will suit most professionals: the reverse-chronological resume format. 

This resume format emphasizes your professional experience, as this is the part of your resume hiring managers are generally most interested in. It formats your work history from most to least recent, so hiring managers can clearly see your career progression. Smart, right?

If you're an applicant who wishes to take the focus off of your limited work experience, it may be wise to opt for the combination resume format. Also referred to as the hybrid format, this resume format is a blend of the aforementioned reverse-chronological resume format and the functional format. The functional format aims to de-emphasize your lack of experience by instead putting your skills front and center.

Senate to resume work on Sept. 3

The Senate will resume work on Tuesday, September 3, amid pending hearings including briefings for the proposed 2025 budget, its officials said.

The announcement came even as Malacanang, through Executive Secretary Lucas Bersamin, suspended government work and classes in private and public schools in the National Capital Region and Region IV-A due to bad weather.

In Memorandum Circular No. 63, Bersamin said the suspension of government work and classes at all levels was because of the continuous rainfall brought by Tropical Storm Enteng and the Southwest Monsoon (Habagat).

"In view of the various scheduled committee hearings and plenary session, Senate President Francis 'Chiz' Escudero has instructed that work at the Senate shall resume tomorrow, Tuesday, 3 September 2024," according to an advisory signed by Renato Bantug Jr., secretary of the Senate.

Bantug said secretariat officers and employees whose services are necessary for the hearings and session are required to report for work.

Those required to report for work are entitled to compensatory time off, he added.

"All other secretariat employees need not report for work.  Senate Proper employees may or may not be required to report for work at the discretion of their respective principals," the Senate advisory said. —LDF, GMA Integrated News

ESPN, ABC and other Disney channels dropped from DirecTV in contract dispute

• Copy Link URL Copied!

Walt Disney Co.-owned channels, including ESPN and ABC stations, were knocked off DirecTV platforms Sunday after talks to reach a new distribution deal collapsed.

The blackout — which affects DirecTV’s nearly 11 million customer homes — hit before the kickoff of Sunday’s highly anticipated University of Southern California -Louisiana State University college football game and in the middle of ESPN’s coverage of the U.S. Open tennis tournament in New York. The impasse came at the deadline for a new distribution deal after weeks of haggling between the two companies over contract terms and fees that Disney charges to carry its programming.

Without an agreement, DirecTV and its U-Verse service lost the rights to carry Disney channels.

“They want to continue to chase maximum profits and dominant control at the expense of consumers — making it harder for them to select the shows and sports they want at a reasonable price,” Rob Thun, chief content officer at DirecTV, said in a statement shortly after the channels went dark at 4 p.m. PST.

Sports fans will quickly feel the pinch. In addition to college football on ESPN and ABC, the new NFL season begins later this week. ESPN is set to start its season with a “Monday Night Football” game Sept. 9 between the San Francisco 49ers and New York Jets, in which Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers is expected to return after suffering an injury a year ago.

Disney’s eight ABC stations, including KABC-TV Channel 7 in Los Angeles, are no longer available on DirecTV. That means viewers of local news and “Jeopardy,” “Wheel of Fortune,” “Good Morning America” and “Jimmy Kimmel Live” will be without some of their favorite shows. Customers in Fresno, San Francisco, Chicago and New York also lost access to their local ABC station.

Other Disney-owned channels, including Freeform, FX and National Geographic , are included in the outage.

“While we’re open to offering DirecTV flexibility and terms which we’ve extended to other distributors, we will not enter into an agreement that undervalues our portfolio of television channels and programs,” read a statement from Disney Entertainment heads Dana Walden, Alan Bergman and ESPN Chairman Jimmy Pitaro. “We urge DirecTV to do what’s in the best interest of their customers and finalize a deal that would immediately restore our programming.”

It’s not clear how long the blackout will last. A year ago, a similar tussle between Disney and Charter Communications , which operates the Spectrum TV service, resulted in a 12-day blackout of Disney channels .

Behind Disney’s Spectrum blackout: A ‘proxy battle’ for the future of television

ESPN, ABC stations, FX and other Disney-owned channels are part of a high-stakes blackout affecting 14.8 million Charter Spectrum customer homes.

Sept. 6, 2023

The Labor Day Weekend clash reflects the television industry’s economic strain .

The shift to streaming and resulting cord-cutting has devastated pay-TV companies . DirecTV has lost more than half of its subscribers in the last decade. The El Segundo company now has about 11 million subscribers, according to industry estimates.

This year marked the worse-ever industry drop in pay-TV subscribers, according to the MoffettNathanson financial research firm. During the first quarter, the industry lost nearly 2.4 million pay-TV homes in the U.S. — a 12% year-over-year decline, the firm said in a recent report.

Subscriber declines have squeezed Disney .

The Burbank entertainment company has long relied on billions of dollars in programming fees that it receives annually from DirecTV and other providers. The fees are calculated, in part, by the number of subscribers that receive the channels.

In addition, Disney’s ESPN has historically been the most expensive basic cable channel, costing distributors nearly $10 per month per subscriber home. Disney has sought to maintain those premiums to help pay for its pricey sports rights contracts, including long-term NFL and NBA deals.

Disney and Charter end fight. But how long will the cable bundle survive?

There are actually things to talk about in Hollywood other than the WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes — such as the Disney-Charter deal to end the blackout.

Sept. 12, 2023

The challenges set the stage for contentious contract talks at DirecTV’s El Segundo headquarters.

The environment has changed dramatically since the last time the two companies hammered out an accord. That was in 2019 when DirecTV was wholly owned by AT&T. Since then, the phone giant has spun its television distribution group into a separate entity and taken on a private equity partner, TPG, to manage the business.

For the past year, DirecTV executives have been working on plans to increase its offerings to consumers.

DirecTV wants to offer genre-themed packages — think sports or general entertainment — to provide cheaper plans for customers who refuse to pay $100 or more each month for a traditional bundle with more than 100 television channels. Executives want to appeal to customers who have long pined for a way to sign up for only the channels they actually watch.

But, according to DirecTV, existing contracts with programmers prevent it from widely offering customers curated packages.

“Instead of allowing distributors like DirecTV to also develop smaller, more tailored packages at prices that reflect the value they get from the content, programmers have continued to impose and enforce strict bundling requirements,” DirecTV said in a position paper in late August.

Can ESPN survive while cable TV dies?

Long known as the ‘Worldwide Leader in Sports,’ ESPN is grappling with cord-cutting, rising rights fees and skepticism from Wall Street.

Sept. 2, 2023

The expiration of the 2019 distribution deal with Disney has given DirecTV an opening to try to change contract terms.

The satellite TV company said it has asked Disney to ease a key distribution requirement — minimum penetration rates. For example, Disney’s deals require that DirecTV and other distributors provide ESPN to a minimum of nearly 80% of its customer base.

DirecTV maintains that such “antiquated” penetration rates “force pay TV customers to subscribe to many channels they may not watch,” and the contracts limit DirecTV’s ability to offer smaller and less-expensive packages. During the negotiations, Disney said it offered DirecTV with more flexibility to tailor “skinny” genre-themed packages that it wanted for its customers.

The Burbank company also agreed to work with DirecTV on the minimum penetration rates, Thun said.

“But not enough to really change the game for us,” Thun said in an interview. “We moved much further than they have [during the negotiations], and what they put on the table in terms of skinny bundles was not the total amount that we had asked for.”

Making a wholesale switch could reduce revenue flowing to Disney at a critical time.

Disney’s stock has been under pressure amid softness at its theme parks and resorts and shares have been trading near five-year lows. On Friday, Disney closed up nearly 1% to $90.38.

Disney at 100: Seven ways Walt’s company forever changed entertainment

From theme parks to animation and kids’ programming, Walt Disney Co. has revolutionized the entertainment business since its launch a century ago.

Oct. 16, 2023

Last year’s outage of ESPN and other Disney channels on Charter’s Spectrum ended with an agreement that saw several smaller Disney channels, including Freeform and Disney Jr., dropped from Spectrum’s lineup.

In the end, both companies said they came away with a win.

Charter didn’t force the issue of penetration rates. Instead, Disney and Charter agreed to widen the reach of the Burbank company’s streaming services, including Disney+ into Spectrum homes.

Disney executives had been hoping last year’s Charter agreement can provide a template for a pact with DirecTV.

In the end, the weekend talks broke down over economics, executives said.

“We continue to invest in really high-quality content — scripted entertainment, ABC News and sports rights,” Justin Connolly, Disney’s president of platform distribution, said in an interview last week.” All of those things continue to increase in cost for us and ... the rates that we are asking for are in-line with what we have with other providers in the marketplace.”
