User guides
How to get the most out of FirstResume.
Short, task-shaped guides to every part of the app. Each one explains how to do one thing, or what a feature is for, and nothing else.
Your profile is where every resume comes from. Build resumes on it, change their template, download them, and pick your primary one.
