Try a sample
Three example resumes from the kit, checked against invented adverts in the Job Search Tracker's Keyword match sheet. Every result was computed by the shipped workbook.

| Python | Yes | 2 | Yes |
| SQL | Yes | 2 | Yes |
| data pipeline (part of a word) | Yes | 2 | Yes |
| ETL | Yes | 1 | No |
| data quality | Yes | 2 | Yes |
| communication | Yes | 1 | No |
| Airflow | No | 1 | No |
| Git | No | 1 | Yes |
| dashboards | No | 1 | Yes |
| Spark | No | 1 | No |
| cloud | No | 1 | No |
| Linux | No | 1 | Yes |
You type here: the shaded cells are the ones you fill in.
- Keywords found in the resume: 7 of 12
- Match: 58%

How it helps
Templates that software can read in order
Six one-column designs with your details in the page itself, standard headings and fonts that come with Windows and macOS. We exported all 24 resume files to PDF and read them back with two text extraction tools in four ways: every line came out complete and in order. No tables, text boxes, images, headers or footers to trip up an applicant tracking system.
Bullets that show results
The guide's bullet formula (an action, how you did it, the result) and 20 before-and-after rewrites from sales to nursing help you turn duties into evidence. A verb bank and six questions help you find your numbers, and the guide is plain about the rule: "Never invent a number".
Tailor each application in 20 minutes
Paste an advert and your resume into the tracker's Keyword match sheet. It counts each keyword in both, flags the missing must-haves and shows how often the advert repeats each one, all inside your own copy of the workbook: it sends nothing anywhere.
Know what to do next
The tracker flags follow-ups, next steps, thank-you notes and contacts that are due, and its Dashboard shows reply and interview rates by where you found each job, so you can spend your time where it has worked.
Every step has the words ready
Six cover letters for different situations, a blank letter, and 17 messages from applying to resigning: follow-ups, referrals, thank-you notes, asking about salary, accepting and declining offers.
Honest and sourced
The guide quotes official careers services and the software makers' own help pages, with their addresses, and covers job scams: the rules official services give, and a checklist of ten warning signs. No toolkit can promise an interview or a job; this one helps you prepare clear, honest applications.
Checked in LibreOffice, formula by formula
LibreOffice Calc recalculated all 4,923 formulas of each workbook and every formula of 22 test cases, from an empty workbook to leap days, year ends, text typed in date cells and full tables, and matched our reference figures in every cell.

Questions
Will this get me an interview or a job?
No toolkit can promise that: employers decide. The kit helps you write a clear, honest resume and cover letters, tailor them to each advert and follow up on time.
Which apps do I need?
A word processor that opens .docx files (on a computer or online in a web browser) for the templates, and Microsoft Excel 2016 or later, Google Sheets or LibreOffice Calc for the tracker.
Can I use the tracker in Google Sheets?
It is made for Google Sheets, built to its documented functions (we tested every formula in LibreOffice Calc): upload the .xlsx file to Google Drive and open it with Google Sheets. Google Sheets does not keep the sheet protection, so type only in the blue cells.
A4 or US Letter?
Both are included. Use US Letter in the United States and Canada and A4 almost everywhere else.
Will my resume look like a template?
The templates are plain, professional layouts with your words in them. The document properties are empty, so nothing of ours goes into the file you send.
Is it for freshers?
Yes. The Fresher template puts education, internships and projects first, and the guide covers student projects, CGPA and the first job search, with a cover letter for graduate roles.
Is my data sent anywhere?
No. The files have no macros, no links to other files and no connections to the internet. Your resume text stays in your copy of the workbook.
Can I use it for my clients?
This is a personal licence: use the files for your own job search. Your finished resume and letters are yours to send to anyone. Selling or sharing the templates themselves is not allowed.
