What our research says

Enhancv

One of the better-designed resume builders, and the ATS check plus job-ad tailoring are the parts that actually move outcomes. The free plan is a seven-day trial in disguise: everything you make carries Enhancv branding until you pay, and the advertised monthly price only applies if you buy six months at once.

Pros

  • ATS check scores the draft against screening criteria before you submit
  • Job tailoring rewrites the resume against a pasted job advert
  • All templates and design tools are available even on the free plan
  • Cover letters, interview prep and an application tracker come with the same subscription

Cons

  • The free plan expires after seven days and brands every export
  • The $16.50 headline is the six-month plan, paid as $99 up front; a single month costs $39
  • Free tier caps you at twelve section items, which is tight for a full career history
  • Prices render in local currency, so the USD figures only appear in the page metadata

Self.cv

Self turns a resume you already have into a live personal website in a few clicks, and the Autofill extension saves the repetitive part of job applications. It is a small, young product, and the free tier's daily caps push active job seekers toward the paid plan quickly.

Pros

  • Generates a working site directly from an existing resume file
  • Autofill extension reuses the same data across job application forms
  • Team plan supports agencies managing several client pages at once

Cons

  • Free plan limits page generations and autofills per day
  • Custom domain support requires the paid Pro tier
