Novorésumé — Update your résumé for 2020

Awesome product Stefan, congrats! I don’t understand the pricing model though? Why would you pay monthly if you only need a resume once to land a job? I understand maybe 3 months but 12 months? Not trying to be critical or rude, just want to understand the decision better behind monthly pricing.

Say 6 months have passed and you want to update your old CV. But you forgot your damn password and have to go through everything again. The guys offer you a new access link in this case, so you don't have to worry about passwords or losing data.

Pros:

Fluid user interface. Been using the guys for 2 years already, and believe me it's much harder to make a fancy CV without Adobe PS skills.

Cons:

None.

Interesting tool, but I think you could work more on the look of the CV. It feels a bit like a Word template. At least from the screenshots, the templates don't look very professional or modern to me.

I've been using Novorésumé since beta and since then haven't found anything better. It's simple, easy to use and most importantly it saves time for EVERYONE. No one wants to write a long resume and no one wants to read one either! Thanks a bunch for helping me in my internship hunting. 💚

Showing graph with skills is never a great idea. This is completely relative to the perspective of the one who is making it… I have seen a lot of people who thought they were great even if they where really bad…

Why the insistence on the french word instead of the English one?

What kind of person need a monthly subscription to edit their resume every month?

Novorésumé makes writing resumes an easy and fun experience. You will never want to go back to Word templates again.

Pros:

Creating custom resumes with lots of different templates/font/colours etc., useful tips while writing the resume, etc

Cons:

None

Hi Product Hunt, Stefan, CEO and Co-founder of Novorésumé here. We started Novorésumé in 2016 with a vision to help people land jobs faster with a beautifully designed résumé that stands out and highlights the core strengths of the candidate. Our vision statement is to end galactic unemployment and do it one impressive résumé at a time. With this tool, we have removed the pains of having to build a résumé from scratch, which frankly, can be time-consuming and a little dull looking. Our research shows it takes 6-7 seconds for the recruiter to skim through the résumé and determine if the candidate is right for the position. Novorésumé builds visually beautiful résumés and focuses on the sections that are important for the recruiters. Based on extensive research we have built a tool that provides easily customisable templates, interchangeable fonts, themes, and layouts. We also have a built-in real-time content optimiser that analyses the content, layout, experience, and geolocation to provide immediate suggestions for the best possible content. Here are the highlight features: - All the sections needed is already provided by our tool, so you have more time to focus on creating a quality content - Layout optimizer checks that content is readable and aligned - Live feedback will provide with tips and examples - Automated synchronization - Multiple languages - all sections easily customisable to the language preferred - Templates are approved by recruiters and employers The basic features on Novorésumé builder are always free. However, we are offering exclusive Product Hunt offer for 7 days for premium features if you visit https://novoresume.com/ph and try it out for yourself. (This offer will be available until 31st of January, 2018.) Also, you will be the first to test out our new feature "Ask for Advice" which allows you to share your documents through a unique link and receive feedback from your network to make sure you create the best job application. Thanks for checking us out! We’d love to get your honest opinion. Feel free to leave a comment or a question here, and I’ll get back to you right away.

Great product, loved every second of using it!

Pros:

Amazing interface, Amazing templates, Great results

Cons:

Not much variety in the cover letter templates

I have used this CV builder for about half a year already and landed numerous interviews and a job with the help of it!

Good thing is that all of your CVs are kept in one repository and very easy to edit according the needs of your new prospect job description.

Pros:

Surprisingly easy way to build yourself a sexy looking CV and stand out from the rest.

Cons:

I'd still love a bit more flexibility on the layout, more drag'n'dropping to break free out of pre-set layouts.

Could have version control.

Before using Novoresume i always had problems making my resume, thinking what to focus on, what information is really relevant for the employer, how to structure the data, if i need a photo or not. Congrats for making my life easier!

Pros:

Easy to use, nice templates, always improving, tips & tricks

Cons:

You can`t get to your second interview because you are hired at the first one!

I would fully recommend Noveoresume. I needed to put together a CV that looked comprehensive and quickly. Pulled up Product Hunt and saw it and was able to apply for the job after taking 15 minutes to create the CV.

I with the people behind this huge success, as I feel there is a real need for something like this.

Pros:

Incredibly easy

Cons:

Sometimes a difficult UI.

I have been using the product for a while now and whilst it was always a great tool, and the feedback on it was great, you should be able to put the Premium membership on hold. Yes, I get it, it may go against common market practices but what if you pay for a year and then you land a job in the first month when you are on the market? The money are paid and you most likely are not going to use the time you have in the paid period but rather sometime in the future.

Not saying that all premium options should have this and that not your full period should be put on hold but just saying that this may be a good way to make the life of your subscription better for the users.

Pros:

Great layouts and UX. Also a lot of flexibility regarding the structure and how you want the resume to look like.

Cons:

The only con I had against the product was that if you pay for the service and have a premium period, you should be able to put it on hold.

This is an excellent resume builder! I like the templates and the ease of use. A recommended tool for every professional!

I have used this résume builder for four months as a free and premium user, and I think it is a great tool for creating CV's, even for non-english speaking countries. I got my current job by using one of your templates. A mobile version (app) would be great!

Amazing 👌🏻

Pros:

Intuitive, user friendly and with great features

Cons:

cannot find one :)

I only used the free version, which is alright as long as your resume can be contained in one page and you don't plan to update it (because as far as I remember, there was no way to edit the resume, once created and exported as pdf, but I might mis-remember though).

Pros:

Concise, eye catching, easy to use. Definitely takes you out of the crowd in a good way, when applying.

Cons:

?

Hi Andrei :-) Pros: I had used the service, back then it was free for download. One of the best and easy way to build yourself a good-looking CV and stand out from the rest, and I have landed numerous of interviews within IT, and the HR department was saying that the CV was easy to navigate through. I was actually thinking about paying, for the service again soon. Great layouts and UX. Also a lot of flexibility regarding, the structure and how you want the resume to look like. Cons: For example, my Danish name is. First name: Casper Middle name: Carl Last name: Sørensen I had paid, for 3 month in hope for it could be change, but I have to change it be myself in Adobe Acrobat DC paid version, and with colors I think fit better with the layout. Therefore, this should be easy to change, with the skilled people behind this good service. Premium period, you should be able to put it on hold. I also miss the stretch function with the text elements like in Photoshop. Thanks for a fantastic service Novorésumé Team :-D Casper from Denmark :-)

I don't have anything negative to say about it! I'm skeptical of the things I use regardless of how good they may be. I almost always find something that could be improved that's probably specific to me, but this is one of those products that has blown me away completely.

Pros:

One of the best tools I've ever used. Why? It makes resume creation a seamless process.

Cons:

None. Suggestion maybe? It could include font styling for specific areas in the resume.
