Looking for a resume template for Microsoft Word? With GotResumeBuilder you build your resume online in any of these 12 templates for free, and the builder handles the formatting as you type. When it is ready, you can download it as a Word document (.docx or .doc) or a PDF with Premium.
Building this way skips the usual frustration of Word templates, where one extra line can push a section onto the next page or break the layout. Your content stays separate from the design, so you can try every template in one click and download the Word file only once everything looks right.
Every design below exports to Word, from ATS-friendly single-column layouts to modern two-column designs.
