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

Creat 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.

πŸ™‹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.


Resume Score

Using the Resume score will provide real-time feedback to help you refine your resume and boost your chances of landing a job. Huntr offers actionable suggestions to optimize resume length, improve content quality, avoid repetition, and highlight achievements with measurable outcomes.

  2. Choose Job Tailored Resume to access the resume importer

  3. Choose a Job from the drop down and source resume

πŸ™‹Tip: There must be a target job and a source resume for the tailored resume to be populated. If you do not have an option in the drop down, add a job and create a base resume to continue.

Job Match Score

The tool will compare your listed experiences with the responsibilities and qualifications in the job posting, then tailoring your resume to fit each role. In addition, Huntr offers actionable suggestions to optimize resume length, improve content quality, avoid repetition, and highlight achievements with measurable outcomes.
​
Your Job match score will function as it does with the Base Resume, though the Job Match focuses on the job you're building the resume for. Huntr will analyze your saved jobs to find important keywords, buzz words, soft/hard skills, and qualifications.
​

πŸ™‹ Tip: Adding specific keywords to your resume will help with ATS filters, showcasing relevant experience, and aligns your resume with job descriptions. This is a great way to stand out to recruiters who are looking for candidate with the most relevant experience.

πŸ™‹ Tip: Using our AI tools allow you to modify and adjust your resume based on the content pulled from job descriptions. For example, the qualifications match will allow you to generate a summary or an achievement and integrate it into your resume where you feel it fits best!
