Sample Resume Templates - Free resume templates!

Free Resume Templates

So a lot of people ask me about resume templates. Oftentimes I am not 100% sure what they are asking as there is a difference between a resume template and a sample resume. Oftentimes, it is more of a resume sample the are looking for, but you must start with a basic resume template before moving on to resume samples, much less free resume samples.

So I put together some of the most common resume templates. They are all in Word format, which means if you would like to access them, you can simply click on one of the thumbnails below and if you like what you see, you can use the resume template to get started in writing a resume of your own. There are 16 resume templates here to get started with more to be added as I grow my database.


Free Resume Samples

When it comes to resume samples, I will be working on those soon, so stay in touch and be looking for more to come. For example if you are in sales, you will be able to find sample sales resumes, or sample customer service resumes, or sample manager resumes, etc.

Free Resume Tips

In looking at the samples resumes below, keep in mind that to write a resume, this can be a task in and of itself! So, while these templates will get you started, I do have an article on resume tips to help you in writing a resume and knowing what to write and what not to write. Writing a resume should not have to be too hard, and the biggest thing is you want to avoid being a resume spammer, something HR folks avoid like the plague.
