Free CV Builder — No Sign-Up, No Watermark

A CV (curriculum vitae) is not the same as a one-page résumé. CVs are used in academia, research, medicine, and many international job markets where a full record of publications, grants, teaching, and conference activity matters. If you are applying for faculty roles, postdoctoral positions, graduate programs, or research-heavy industry jobs, you need a document that can grow beyond a single page without breaking formatting.

FreeResume.me's CV builder is built for that longer-form structure. Add education with thesis details, list peer-reviewed publications and preprints, capture grants and fellowships, document teaching and supervision, and include professional service — all in a section-by-section editor with a live preview. Switch between academic templates (Classic Academic and Modern Academic) without re-entering your content.

Unlike subscription CV tools that lock PDF export behind a paywall, FreeResume.me is free end to end: no account required to start, no watermark on your download, and no credit card. Create a free account only if you want documents saved and synced across devices.

Pair your CV with a tailored cover letter using our cover letter builder, or browse ATS-friendly résumé templates if you also need a shorter document for industry applications. When your CV is ready, export a pixel-perfect PDF in US Letter or A4.
