Resume Builder

Within Huntr, you have the option to create two types of resumes: the Base Resume and the Tailored Resume. The Base Resume is your comprehensive, foundational resume that you can build by importing your existing resume or syncing with your LinkedIn profile. It includes all your professional experience, education, skills, and other relevant information, serving as a complete overview of your qualifications. The Tailored Resume, on the other hand, uses your Base Resume and a saved job posting to automatically generate a customized resume. It incorporates keywords and specific content from the job description to align your resume more closely with the position you're applying for, increasing your chances of catching an employer's attention

Create Base Resume

  1. Click on Resume Builder in the left hand menu

  2. Choose Base Resume to access the resume importer

  3. Add your Target Job Title, Experience Level, and Document name.

  4. Choose to import your current resume, import from LinkedIn, or build a resume based off of the information from your Huntr Profile.


Editing Your Resume

Once your resume is built, you can edit the layout, adjust the template, and use AI to revamp the content. Click into each section within the editor to make adjustments.

🙋Tip: This is your chance to revamp your work experience, skills, and more! Using the AI suggestions will allow you to reword and add in new bullet points. If you are using the Basic Plan you have up to 10 generations. The Pro Plan allows for unlimited generations.
