Questions people ask.

Is DesignMyCV free?

Yes. Building your CV, checking its ATS score and downloading it as PDF or Word are free, with no watermark.

What is an ATS?

An applicant tracking system is software companies use to collect and filter CVs. It reads the text of your CV and searches it for keywords from the job. Fancy layouts, tables and images can confuse it.

Will my CV pass every ATS?

No tool can promise that, because every company sets up its system differently. Our templates follow the rules most systems need: one column, standard headings, real text and no images.

Is my data safe?

Your CV is stored in your account and only you can see it, unless you create a share link. Files you upload for checking or converting are deleted right after. You can delete your CVs anytime.

Which languages are supported?

The site works in English, Spanish, French, German and Portuguese. You can write your CV in any of these, or in Arabic.
