What does a CV need to look like in India?

Common in India: 1-2 page CV, photo optional, DOB and full education details (including GPA) commonly included. AlmiCV applies these India conventions for you and can translate into English.

Will AlmiCV get my CV past company tracking software?

It scores your CV the way modern ATS software does and shows you exactly what to fix — starting with the biggest filter: matching your job title to the role.

Is AlmiCV really free to start?

Yes. You can build, preview, and test your layout at no cost. Pro is a flat $7 — no hidden download walls, no weekly renewals. What you see is what you pay.

Will the AI make my CV sound robotic?

No. It sharpens your own sentences instead of replacing them with generic blocks. You keep full control of your own voice.

No download traps · no weekly billing

Build an India-Ready CV for Any Role

Right now, a robot (an ATS) is deleting your CV before a human in India ever reads it — not because you're not good enough, but because your CV doesn't speak its language. AlmiCV fixes that.

The price trap of traditional builders

Resume.io charges around $30 every 4 weeks — roughly $389 a year. Zety bills you weekly and traps your finished document behind an unannounced download paywall.

AlmiCV charges $7 flat per month. No download walls. No tricks. We want you to stay because we're good — not because you're trapped.

The invisible gate

Around 75% of resumes are filtered out by ATS software before a human ever sees them. Every silent rejection means a machine threw your document out in seconds — over formatting or missing keywords.

AlmiCV ends the guessing. Our resume checker reviews your document the way company software does, flagging problems instantly so you fix them live — before you hit apply.

Formatting points for India

Contact details (with +91 and city/state) belong in the body, not headers, which tracking systems often skip.
Use a summary for experienced candidates and an objective for freshers.

It is reverse-chronological.
