FAQs

Everything you need to know about our AI resume builder. Can't find the answer you're looking for? Please chat to our friendly team.

What is an AI resume builder?

Our AI resume builder is powered by the best LLMs on the market, your Himalayas profile, and a job description. When combined, we create a personalized resume for you. It's a great way to save time and make sure you're putting your best foot forward when applying for a job.

Why would I use an AI resume maker?

Using an AI resume maker is the easiest way to build a resume that maximizes your chances of getting an interview. They're designed to tailor the language of your resume to what employers are looking for. It's a great way to save time and ensure that your skills and experience align to the job description.

Can I use an AI resume builder with my existing resume?

Yes, the AI resume builder works with your existing resume. You can upload your current resume and we'll automatically create your Himalayas profile. Or manually fill it out if you prefer.

Does the AI resume builder grade my resume?

Yes, our resume builder includes a comprehensive scoring system that evaluates your resume across five key categories: personal details, resume summary, skills, work experience, and education. The score helps ensure your resume follows best practices and is complete. We check for essential elements like contact information, professional summary, relevant skills, detailed work history, and educational background. The higher your score, the better aligned your resume is with industry standards and job recruiter expectations.

How does the AI resume builder work?

Our AI resume builder uses the best LLMs on the market, your existing resume, and a job description. Once you've uploaded your resume and chosen a job to apply for, it will generate a great job-specific resume for you in seconds. It uses your resume to understand your experience and skills, and the specific job description to assess what the hiring manager is looking for.

What's the best way to use an AI resume builder?

To get the most out of an AI resume builder, it's essential to provide it with your professional background and the job description of a role you want to apply for. The more context you can provide, the better the AI will be able to build a unique and tailored resume that will help you stand out from other applicants.

Aren't all resumes written with AI the same?

Yes and no. If you use an AI resume builder that doesn't take into account your professional background and the job description of a role you want to apply for, the resume will be generic and won't stand out. However, if you use an AI resume builder that takes into account your professional background and the job description of a role you want to apply for, the resume will be unique and tailored to your specific situation.

Will employees care that my resume was written with AI?

No, employees won't care that your resume was written with AI. Recruiters are more concerned with the quality of your resume and whether you're a good fit for the job you're applying for than the technology used to create it.

What is the best AI resume builder?

We might be biased, but we think Himalayas has the best AI resume builder. It's powered by the best LLMs on the market, personalized to your skills and experience, and is tailored to the job you are applying for.

Are there any free AI resume builders?

Yes, Himalayas lets you generate your first resume for free. If you want to generate more than one, you'll need to subscribe for $9/month. Unfortunately, we have to pay for the AI model and we're a small bootstrapped team, so we charge a $9 a month. We think it's a fair price to pay for a great resume that could help you land your dream job.

Are there any additional fees?

Nope. We hate hidden fees as much as you do. What you see is what you pay. We've made our pricing as transparent as possible.

How do refunds work?

If you're not happy with your purchase, we're happy to refund you. All we ask is that you don't abuse this. We're a small, bootstrapped team so every dollar counts.

Do you really donate 10% of what I pay to CO₂ removal?

We do! We use Stripe Climate to direct 10% of our revenue to help scale emerging carbon removal technologies. As early technologies, carbon removal is expensive, so it hasn't attracted a critical mass of customers. But with wider adoption, they'll scale and become cheaper for everyone.
