FAQ

Is the Tradesman template free?
Tradesman is on the Pro plan ($9/mo) — picking it takes you straight to checkout, there's no free trial of this specific template. Pro also adds Word export, AI tailoring, and more than 1 saved resume.
Is it ATS-friendly?
Yes — every template renders to a single reading order an ATS parser can follow (no tables, no text-in-images), regardless of how visually different they look. The free resume check verifies this on your actual content, not just the template.
Can I change the colors after picking it?
Yes. Color is a per-resume setting, independent of which template you picked — every template supports live recoloring in the editor.
What if it doesn't fit after I start?
Switching templates keeps your content — headings, bullets, dates all carry over. You're not locked into the first one you try.
