How it works

From profile to PDF in four steps

Pre-filled from your profile

Your summary, roles, qualifications and skills carry straight into the builder. Edit freely without changing your profile.

Guided sections

Contact details, summary, experience, education, skills and referees, each with a short tip on what employers in Botswana look for.

Three ATS-friendly templates

Classic, Modern and Compact. All single-column with standard headings so applicant tracking systems parse them cleanly.

Export and apply

Download the PDF and it is saved to your documents, ready to send with one-click applications. Autosave keeps your draft safe.

Templates

Three layouts, one goal: being read

Every template avoids the things that break applicant tracking systems: photos, tables, columns, graphics and unusual headings.

Classic
Traditional layout with serif headings. The safest choice for conservative employers and government.
Modern
Clean sans-serif layout with a brand-blue name bar and clear section rules.
Compact
Tighter spacing and smaller type to fit more experience onto two pages.

Also free

Questions

Frequently asked

Is the CV builder really free?

Yes. Building, saving and exporting your CV is free and always will be. Applying for jobs is free too. Only the optional writing and coaching services are paid.

What does ATS-friendly mean?

Many employers use applicant tracking systems that read CVs automatically. They struggle with photos, tables, columns and decorative fonts. Our templates use a single column, standard headings and real text so your details are read correctly.

Can I keep more than one version?

Each export is saved as a document in your account (up to ten documents). The builder keeps one live draft that you can keep editing; export again whenever you tailor it to a new role.

Will the builder write it for me?

Not yet. Optional wording suggestions are planned, and they will always be opt-in with clear notice of how your data is processed. For now the tips in each section come from HR professionals who shortlist CVs for Botswana employers.
