Please allow the system to keep my RESUME TEMPLATE. I’ve had a professional write my resume in a ATS template and I want to keep that but Simplify changes the format.
Hey @Kevon! Thanks so much for reaching out and sharing your feedback — we totally understand how important it is to maintain the format of a professionally written resume.
At the moment, due to technical limitations with how Word documents work, we’re not able to preserve uploaded resume templates exactly as-is. While we don’t have plans to support full custom template retention, all of Simplify’s resume formats are ATS-friendly and have been thoroughly tested across major applicant tracking systems.
So if your main concern is around ATS compatibility, you can rest assured that your resume will still perform well when using our templates.
Appreciate your understanding, and please don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any other questions or thoughts!
