Q: 1)Any plans to be able to upload resumes from dcouments or PDF's?
I think this would make this better deal. Not everyone is on linked in, and really my profile there is not related to a job I would put in for. 2)If we load a resume to Linked in, will it pull from that resume, or is it only pulling from other sections of Linked In? 3)Can we copy and past items from a doc or pdf and paste them into the resume? 4)Can we customize these resumes, add things not on Linked IN?
1. We do want to build an 'Upload Resume' feature where the user can upload their PDF or DOC resume and it would automatically be converted to a well-formatted & stylish resume on Resumonk.
But, as you would understand, this upload functionality is a non-trivial technical problem. We need to accurately parse any resume uploaded to Resumonk and then extract the right information from it. The resume can be in any kind of layout & format, and could also be in a language other than English.
We are still exploring a good technical solution that will work for majority of cases.
2. Resumonk imports the information from the zip file exported by LinkedIn. This zip file only has information present in the LinkedIn sections. We don't get the uploaded resume in it, and even if we get it, till the time we have the generic parser available as mentioned above we won't be able to read this uploaded resume.
3. Yes, you can copy & paste information in to the Resumonk editor.
4. Yes, you can customize the resume by adding/renaming sections and updating any information that you've imported from LinkedIn. You can add any number of custom sections to your resume.
You said 'no' to using it for clients, but 'yes' to using it for family and friends. What's the exact limit? I'd rather know now then later when you decide to 'clarify' it. Thank you!
A: Typically we review an account if it has resumes for more than 10 people. If a user is under that limit, it’s perfectly okay.
In the review, if it seems that the person is using their account for commercial use, we politely ask them to switch to a custom business plan.
Please note that we mean 10 different individuals here, and not 10 resumes in an account. You can have 7 resumes each for 3 people and that won’t be an issue at all.
In fact, we encourage customizing the resume for each job application (using the Clone feature) and Resumonk helps in maintaining all the different versions on the same Dashboard.
Often, students in developing countries start sharing their account. It’s completely understandable that the pricing in USD can be a deterrent for them (we’ve been there ourselves at one point). We suggest them to use our referral program to get free access to our premium features.
Let me know if you’ve any other questions. Cheers.
Thanks. Do you mean more than 10 individuals at a given time (like we can delete 1 to make room for a new 1) or 10 total individuals ever for the account? Thanks again.
It's a simple automated check that flags those accounts that have resumes for more than 10 individuals. We reach out to those users, as required, before taking further action. We don't go through anyone's private details.
Q: We are helping students with their resumes.
Can we provide them access through this lifetime deal? any limitations?
A: Hi Rupesh You can create unlimited resumes for yourself, friends and family (up to 10 individuals) using the Forever Plan account. Please reach out to us at support@resumonk.com with your specific needs & we'll try to work out something for you.
A: You can create unlimited resumes for yourself, friends and family (up to 10 individuals) using any of these 20 designs/templates. There is no limit on number of downloads!
A: Hello! All our resume templates come with a matching cover letter. You can have a look at them here: https://www.resumonk.com/cover-letter-templates
Yes, we do plan to add more templates to Resumonk. Here is the roadmap: https://www.resumonk.com/roadmap
Q: Based on your explanation that the purchase here is good for up to 10 people, e.
g. family and friends... If I indeed had 10 people wanting to use this, and each of the 10 people created one resume per person, will my Appsumo plan be exhausted at the 10 resumes? Or will each of these people be able to create more resumes as their needs and job experience change, i.e. "Create and manage multiple personal resumes. Single click 'clone' functionality".
• If a person doesn't have a LinkedIn profile, would Resumonk work off a txt or .doc file that he/she can provide? • If a person who counted in the initial set of 10 people decides that he/she doesn't need to use Resumonk, can I remove the person and add in a different person, as long as my account is not used for more than 10 persons at a time? • Most important question for me: If I offer to help my family/friends with their resumes, how can I convince them that their LinkedIn profiles and Linkedin logins will not be harvested by Resumonk or used for some other purpose? • Also important: Is Resumonk a fairly mature and profitable business for you, so that we don't have to worry about our "Forever Plan" going kaput if you close down the service?? (If it helps, when I've asked this question of other Founders on appsumo deals, at least one person posted his own LinkedIn profile as proof that he had a business with enough staying power).
- Currently, we don't have the feature to import resume information from a doc or txt file.
- Yes, you can remove resumes for any one person and then add another one.
- We have a clear note about the privacy of LinkedIn profile data that is uploaded to Resumonk. You can see it just above the upload step: https://www.resumonk.com/resume-builder/help/import-from-linkedin
We don't store the uploaded zip file on our servers and we don't use it for any other purpose apart from creating your resume.
- Resumonk has been in business since 2013 and we also ran a deal on AppSumo in 2014. You can read more about us here: https://www.resumonk.com/about-us
Please let me know if you've any other questions. I'd be happy to answer them for you.
Q: Good day to you, when will agency plan be available?
What's the rough package for agency plan? Thank you.
Q: Can i embed it into a website or app, using iFrame html?
If possible, please share an example url where i can check how it looks.
Also, i understand this LTD is for the Forever plan, which includes x10 different people, is that correct?
PS: After reading all sumoling comments-questions, you have no doubt that an Agency plan is what´s needed here on appsumo to make your product sell-be competitive. So it would be great if you could actually confirm a date when you´re planning to launch the agency plan here... if it is in your plans.
A: Yes, you can embed a public resume (created on Resumonk) in an external site. Please refer to the instructions given in this help article: https://www.resumonk.com/resume-builder/help/embed-public-resume
Here is an example of an embedded resume: https://codepen.io/bharanim/full/PoGzxyE
Yes, you can use the Forever Plan to create unlimited resumes for yourself, friends and family (up to 10 individuals).
About the Agency Plan, whenever we launch it in the future, we will come back to AppSumo with a new deal. Appreciate your interest in our product. Thank you!
Q: Hi,
i could be interested in offering this service to my audience, under my own CNAME and white-label branding.
My users would be able to generate their own CV´s, using the templates available etc.. Basically, if i get it right... it would be an agency LTD.
If that´s available and-or possible, i would like to check info, features and costs. As long as it is a LTD offering, I don´t go for recurring payment subscriptions.
1. You'll have to pay only the additional amount of $110 (149 - 39). Please send an email at support@resumonk.com and we'll help you with the exact steps to make this purchase.
2. Based on our quick comparison, Resumonk offers these extra features that are not available in resume.io.
- Import of complete LinkedIn profile - 18 additional fonts for the PDF resume - DOCX download is available for 14 templates on Resumonk while it’s only there for 2 templates on resume.io - Custom URL for public resumes e.g. resumonk.com/your-name - Ability to embed public resumes in personal websites
And last but not the least, we might be able to provide you better customer service. :-)
Please let me know if you’ve any other questions. I’d be happy to answer them for you.
Q: Hi, was going to purchase until I read there is no Agency Plan.
I would like to use it as a service for my business. I am a career manager/recruiter and offer resume writing tips. Please consider adding an option to use as a reseller or ability to add unlimited users? Thanks!
A: We looked at all the feature requests for the Agency Plan that we received from the Sumo-lings.
At this point, it won’t be wise on our part to sell the Forever Plan to agencies and professional resume writers. If we hastily add a couple of features just to make it look suitable for businesses, it will still fall short of all your expectations (and also ours).
We know this will disappoint many of you and we are sorry about it. But you wouldn’t want to get stuck with something half-baked especially when your own clients will depend on this platform.
Whenever we launch the Agency Plan in the future, we will come back to AppSumo with a new deal.
Thanks again to everyone who expressed interest in having this plan and emailed us their suggestions. Much appreciated!
p.s. Just putting it here again for people who might not have read our other answers - You can use Forever Plan to create unlimited resumes for yourself, friends and family (up to 10 individuals)!
Just need a simple yes or no answer or if you are adding this before the deal expires>>> Is it possible to use this for my recruiting business by offering resume writing... you just need to allow the ability for unlimited uses for any client I receive. Can you allow that? I don't need to email any additional info to get the answer to this. Happy to grab an additional or if you want to add another cost, but if I have a limitation on the number of uses at a time, then sounds like a lot of us cannot use this and will wait for the next deal hopefully. Thanks!
Q: We sumo-lings are hustlers.
We also would like to earn as much as you do. We will really appreciate if you will push the agency plan. Thank you!
A: Thanks for your interest! Completely understand your perspective.
But we also want to come up with an offering that’s really useful and more importantly can be sustained by us in the long run. We don’t want to do it only to make a quick buck right now.
We’ve got some great inputs over email from many Sumo-lings on what features they would like to see in this plan. If you haven’t emailed us yet, we’d love to hear your thoughts as well. If you have a few minutes, please send us a note at support@resumonk.com. Thank you!

Hello! Please see my reply to @testing123's comment.
Thanks.
Q: I purchased a lifetime subscription some 4 years ago and quickly dropped Resumonk.
Why? Because it didn't receive any further development since and I encountered many bugs when exporting templates to Word. Also, documents created by Resumonk never imported properly into ATS. Some templates were added, but that's it. I, for one, find Rezi much more intuitive and developing to customers' needs. Your mileage may vary.
There's one feature though that I use with Resumonk: Endorsements on LinkedIn. I quickly import all of them and create a separate document with Resumonk to attach to my resume.
I’m sorry you had a disappointing experience with Resumonk. It is under active development and we’ll try to speed it up more at our end.
I'll try to address your other points here.
Unfortunately, the DOCX format has lots of limitations when it comes to updating those templates programmatically. An exact 1:1 mapping with HTML & PDF versions is not possible. The color, font, spacing & page layout settings are applied only to the PDF and not to the DOCX format.
There is no uniform standard followed by all the Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) when it comes to parsing a resume and extracting relevant text out of it. A resume might be parsed perfectly by one software and the same document might not work with another one. In fact, differences exist between different versions of the same software.
Since the list of ATS software is huge, it’s practically impossible to say this particular template or resume will get parsed by 'all' of them correctly.
Our recommendation is to ideally apply for a job through a referral so that the resume reaches the hiring manager directly. That gives the candidate the best chance and a standout resume/cover letter really helps there. This can't be done for all job applications, but the candidate should strive to do it as much as possible.
Having said that, you can choose to test your Resumonk resume on a service like Jobscan (no affiliation with us) to assess how it gets read by ATS software. I believe their software is able to parse our resumes well.
Glad you like the LinkedIn import feature. We are continually working on improving the product and hope you'll find Resumonk more useful in future. :-)
A: Ah. Sorry, this plan is not for commercial use by resume writers, career coaches & recruiters.
Please reach out to us at support@resumonk.com and we'll offer you a custom business plan based on number of resumes you plan to create for your clients using Resumonk. Thanks!
Hello! Based on the requests here, we are actively considering the Agency plan.
If you've a few minutes, could you please let us know what features you'd ideally like to see in this business plan? If possible, please send us an email at support@resumonk.com with your thoughts. We'd really appreciate it.
Q: I would consider buying it if you can add a agency plan.
A: Based on the requests here, we are actively considering it right now.

Our recommendation is to ideally apply for a job through a referral so that the resume reaches the hiring manager directly. That gives the candidate the best chance and a standout resume/cover letter really helps there. This can't be done for all job applications, but the candidate should strive to do it as much as possible.
Having said that, you can choose to test your Resumonk resume on a service like Jobscan (no affiliation with us) to assess how it gets read by ATS software. I believe their software is able to parse our resumes well.
Glad you like the LinkedIn import feature. We are continually working on improving the product and hope you'll find Resumonk more useful in future. :-)
