How it works
From “I need a resume” to “sent” in three simple steps.
Blacklight Resumes is designed for people who are tired, busy, or just stuck. You bring the basics. We handle wording, structure, and formatting so you can move on to applying.
Step 2
We build a clean, ATS-friendly draft
Your answers are turned into a structured resume with clear sections, consistent formatting, and phrasing that makes it easier for a hiring manager to see your value.
Step 3
Your resume lands in your inbox
Within minutes, you’ll receive your resume by email as a file you can download, edit, and send to employers right away.
What you receive
A straightforward resume that holds up on job sites.
The layout you receive is intentionally simple. Recruiters and applicant tracking systems both do better with clear headings, clear sections, and consistent spacing.
Where is your resume taking you next?
- Clear header with your name and contact details at the top.
- Skills and summary placed where a reviewer will see them quickly.
- Experience written with plain, specific language that avoids buzzwords.
- A file you can keep updating, tailoring, and reusing for different roles.
If you’re used to flashy templates, this will feel calmer on purpose. The goal is a resume that gets read, not one that gets lost in formatting.
Pricing
$5 per resume. That’s it.
There’s no subscription, no “pro tier,” and no surprise upsell. You pay once, get your resume, and keep it for as long as you need.
$5 flat
Affordable on purpose
Job hunting is already stressful and expensive. The price stays low so you can get unstuck without turning this into another big purchase.
ATS-safe
Built for real applications
No graphic-heavy templates or awkward columns. Your resume is designed to work with applicant tracking systems and still be easy for a person to skim.
Ready fast
Minutes, not days
After you submit the form and pay, your resume is generated and sent to your inbox so you can start applying right away.
You’ll be taken to a simple form to share your experience.
Questions
FAQ
A few of the most common questions people ask before they try Blacklight Resumes.
How long does it take to get my resume?
After you complete the form and payment, your resume is generated and emailed to you. Most people receive it within minutes, depending on email delivery and traffic.
What do I need before I start?
Bring whatever you already have—an old resume, job titles, dates, and a rough list of responsibilities. The form will walk you through the rest.
Do you make fancy resume designs?
No. The focus here is on clear, readable resumes that work well with job sites and ATS systems. If you want to add design later, you can use this file as your base.
Is my data private? How long do you keep it?
Your information is used to create your resume and stored only as long as needed for business and record-keeping purposes. You can request removal using the Contact form.
Can I request edits?
Edits are for fixing problems, not rewriting your resume over and over. If something in the draft is not styled properly or does not match what you submitted, you can reply to the delivery email and ask for a correction. We will first resend or correct the resume; if we cannot fix a clear error, we may offer a refund after review.
Do you work with libraries or workforce centers?
Yes. Libraries and workforce programs can offer Blacklight Resumes as a tool for their patrons. See the partnerships section below to request more information.
Libraries & partners
Bring Blacklight Resumes to your patrons.
For libraries and workforce programs, Blacklight Resumes can be a low-cost way to give patrons fast access to professional, job-ready resumes without needing in-house resume writers.
For libraries & workforce programs
Patrons complete the same simple form and receive their resume by email, usually within minutes. Your staff can share a single link instead of building a new tool from scratch.
