Is CVGlobe really free?
Yes. All templates, downloads, CV import, the job match checker and the cover letter builder are free to use.
Can I use the same CV for every country?
Yes. Choose your target market in the builder: US, UK, Europe or GCC. Your downloads adapt to it: US Letter paper and "Resume" in the file name for the US, A4 elsewhere, no photo for the US and UK, and personal details such as date of birth or nationality left out where recruiters don't expect them. Nothing is deleted, so you can switch back at any time. The checks under Job match also flag length and spelling for that market. See CV vs résumé by country.
Can I write a cover letter with CVGlobe?
Yes. The cover letter builder takes your name and contact details from your CV and uses the same template colors and font. It can write a first draft from your CV and the job post, which you then edit and download as a PDF.
What is an ATS?
An applicant tracking system is software employers use to collect, sort and filter job applications. It reads your CV, pulls out details like job titles, skills and dates, and ranks you against the job post. If it can't read your CV properly, a recruiter may never see it.
Is my data safe?
Until you sign in, your CV is saved only in your own browser. When you sign in, your CVs are saved to your account, encrypted, so you can open them on any device. You can delete a saved CV, or your whole account, at any time from My CVs. If you use AI writing, only the CV text it needs is sent to write that suggestion, never your name, contact details or photo, and it isn't kept.
What is the job search dashboard?
When you're signed in, the Dashboard keeps every application in one place. Press Save to my applications in Job match and CVGlobe keeps the job post, the CV and cover letter you sent and your match score. Add interview dates and put them in your calendar with reminders a day and an hour before, and see which applications have had no reply for a week, with a follow-up email ready to copy.
How does AI writing work?
Click Improve with AI under your summary or a job's bullets, Tailor my CV with AI in Job match, or Polish with AI on your cover letter. You get a suggestion you can use or ignore, and you can undo it. AI only rewrites what is already in your CV and won't add facts, but read every line before you use it. You need to sign in to use it. It's free, with a daily limit on suggestions.
Can I import my existing CV?
Yes. Upload a PDF, Word (.docx) or text file and CVGlobe fills in the builder. Scanned images can't be read, so use the original file. Always review the imported details.
Should I send a PDF or a Word file?
Send a PDF unless the job post asks for Word. CVGlobe PDFs contain real, selectable text that ATS software can read.
Should I add a photo to my CV?
In the UAE and much of the GCC, photos are common and often expected. For jobs in the US, UK and Canada, leave the photo off. CVGlobe's Photo templates keep your text in one column so it still reads cleanly.
What's the difference between ATS and Designer templates?
ATS templates use one column and standard headings, so application software reads them reliably. Designer templates add color, skill tags and a sidebar, and work best when you send your CV straight to a recruiter.
Does CVGlobe work on my phone?
Yes. The site works on any phone browser, and an Android app is in testing.
Can I make an Arabic CV?
Not yet. CVGlobe currently supports English CVs. You can list Arabic under Languages, and Arabic support is on our roadmap.
Where is my CV saved if I switch devices?
Sign in with the same email on the other device and open it from My CVs. Without an account, your draft stays in the browser you used.
