Step 1: Go to "Documents" Tab
Once you're signed in to EarnBetter, go to your "Documents" tab. On desktop, this lives in the top left corner of your screen. On mobile, you'll access "Documents" through the menu in the top right.
Step 2: Click "Resume" under "Want to generate a new document?"
Once you're in "Documents", you can click the "Resume" button to generate a new one.
Step 3: Choose a resume to use as the base
What do you want to use as the base of this resume? You have two options:
If you want to use a resume that you've already created using EarnBetter, click the first box on the left - this is what we recommend and this is the path we will highlight in this article.
If you want to use a resume that you've created on your own (or start from scratch), you can click the second box. You will either be prompted to (1) upload a resume from your device or (2) start a new resume from scratch.
Step 4: Enter the job title
Type in the name of the job title that you'll be using this resume for. We will tailor your resume based on the types of jobs you'll be applying for.
Step 5: Choose "no" for "Do you have a job description for this role?"
A base resume is typically tailored to a job family or role type, so you will say "No" to this question about having a job description. This is when you want to make a more general resume for a job type, such as "Customer Service Representative". This option is more common for people who want various base resumes for different job families (for example: one resume for customer service, another resume for operations, another resume account management, etc.)
Please note: if you have a job description that you want to use to customize your resume, you would click "Yes". If you want to read the help article for creating custom resumes for specific jobs, click here.
Step 6: Select a base resume
Now select which of your EarnBetter resumes you want to use as the base for your new resume. Choose the resume that best matches the type of jobs you'll be applying for with this new resume.
Step 7: Add keywords & skills
This step doesn't always happen, but if there are certain keywords or skills that our AI thinks you should add to your resume, you'll be prompted at this stage. Sometimes, your resume is already in great shape with the right keywords, so you might bypass this step.
Step 8: Now you have a new resume!
Next, you'll see a preview of your new resume.
If you want to make any edits to your resume, you can hit "Content" or "Design" in the top right of your resume. There is another article dedicated to updating + editing your EarnBetter resume, so visit this help page for more details on the full suite of options.
You can download by hitting "download" in the top right corner.
If you hit "finish", you'll be taken back to your documents and this resume will be saved in your "resumes" section - you can reference back to it anytime.
If you have any issues downloading your resume, please see this article.
The most common download issue is on mobile devices. If you are on a mobile device, ensure you are accessing EarnBetter directly via your browser (instead of inside of another application like Gmail, TikTok or Instagram).
If you are inside of another application, please navigate directly to https://earnbetter.com from a new browser, login and you should be able to download your file. The documents will be saved to whatever your default location is set up on your mobile device. Many third party applications like TikTok or Instagram remove the ability to download.
