Everything Resume is a free, open-source platform dedicated to democratizing access to professional career tools. We believe that creating a polished resume, portfolio, or cover letter shouldn't require expensive software subscriptions or design expertise.
We exist to remove barriers between job seekers and opportunities. Every day, talented individuals fail to land interviews not because they lack qualifications, but because they can't afford professional resume services or don't know how to present their experience effectively.
Everything Resume aims to level the playing field by providing:
All completely free, forever.
The resume building industry has become predatory, with services charging $50-500 for what should be straightforward document creation. Meanwhile, free alternatives are often limited, outdated, or riddled with upsells.
We saw an opportunity to create something different: a modern, capable tool built with respect for users' time, data, and financial constraints. By open-sourcing the project, we ensure it can never be monetized in ways that betray our users.
Everything Resume is built on open-source technologies and is itself open-source (MIT License). This means:
Our code is publicly available on GitHub, welcoming developers to contribute features, fix bugs, or adapt the platform for their specific use cases.
We use modern web technologies (React, Node.js, Python) to deliver a fast, reliable experience. Privacy is a core principle:
We're often asked about our relationship to Burton Jay Nadler's popular career guide. To clarify: Everything Resume (this web application) is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or related to "The Everything Resume Book" published by Adams Media.
The naming similarity is coincidental. We respect Mr. Nadler's work and recommend his book as a valuable resource for resume strategy—our tool helps you implement that strategy in a professional format.
