How do I share my resume and cover letter?

When your resume is ready, you can use resume.io to share an online link to your resume. By default your materials are private and only shared if you choose to use our sharing features. You can also share your resume with employers by downloading a PDF or DOCX of your resume and uploading it to online application portals or emailing it to hiring managers. 

Please note that the ability to share a link or export your document to PDF and DOCX formats are only available to users on our premium plans.

How to share a link to your resume

Sharing a link is a convenient and modern way to send your resume/and or cover letter via email, social media, or even via text message.

There are two ways to share a link. Once your resume or cover letter is complete, you can share a link within the builder by clicking the three dots next to “Download PDF.” This will open a menu where you can select “Share a link”.

This will open a window where you can copy or open the URL to your resume or share your resume via social platforms. By navigating to the statistics tab, you can monitor how many views or downloads your resume has and see the view history.

You can also share a link straight from your documents dashboard by selecting “Share a link” to the right of the document preview.

Remember, although your resume and cover letter is private by default, once you share a link to it, someone could potentially share that link with others. If you don’t want your document to be visible anymore via the link, make sure to first duplicate the document within the builder and then delete the version that you shared. The URL will then redirect to a 404 page.
