Create a Resume page on your website

Pixpa supports and empowers job seekers & people to grow their own brands. As part of providing this support, we allow our customers to showcase their resumes on their sites so that it becomes visible to their potential recruiters/clients.

Potential recruiters/clients use Google to know more about you. Hence, it is best to build a resume page and showcase the skills you have rather than showing your social media presence. This makes a very good impression on you and makes them feel that you are a talented and skilled person.

Make your Resume available on your website in three different ways:

1. Create a Resume page wherein you add your Resume to a text block.
2. Embed your Resume as a PDF using third-party apps viz. Issuu or Yumpu.
3. Provide a link on your site to download your Resume.

Add your Resume to a text block

1. From the Website section, create a new blank page.
2. Now, from the new page editor, click on the ADD SECTION button, select the Text (1) category and add any text layout (2). Learn how to.
3. Erase all the demo text and add your Resume (text) into the text section.

4. In case, you are doing a copy-paste from a different source, we recommend you to remove the existing formatting of the text first and then, paste the text. Learn how to.
