Section Content
The AI determines sections based on the job description and job profile. Common sections include Professional Summary, Work Experience, Education, Skills, Certifications, Languages, Projects. You can toggle the profile photo visibility in the header block using the Show Profile Photo setting.
CV Designer (Visual Job Profile)
The CV Designer is a fully feature-loaded visual editor that allows you to customize styling, layout, and fine-tune your CV manually.
Section Rearranging & Layout (Drag and Drop)
You can easily reorganize your resume layout directly on the canvas using drag-and-drop handles. Grab any section header and drag it to a new location or between columns to reorganize instantly.
Dynamic Page Breaks & Layout Indicators
The visual canvas features dynamic page-break indicators, showing exactly where a page split will occur in the rendered PDF. This allows you to adjust font sizes, block gaps, or spacing in real time to ensure your content fits perfectly.
Customizing Design Elements
Using the designer, you can control:
- Typography: Select fonts from modern options like Inter, Roboto, or Outfit.
- Colors: Adjust accents and theme colors to match your brand or preferences.
- Spacing: Fine-tune margins, paddings, and section gaps.
