Introducing CQ Resume
Today we are shipping the first ClassQuip Tool: a free, ATS-ready resume builder for teachers and students — upload what you have, let AI tighten the wording, choose a template, and download a PDF. No account required.
Live class is where ClassQuip lives, but the paperwork around school still matters. Student teachers polish a first resume before placement. Seniors apply to programs and part-time jobs. Educators update a CV when they move districts or pick up a summer role. Most of that work happens in a Word doc at 10 p.m., then gets pasted into a portal that strips half the formatting anyway.
Applicant tracking systems do not care about your font choices. They care whether your sections parse cleanly and your bullets read like outcomes, not job duties. That gap — between what you wrote and what the scanner can read — is why we built CQ Resume at classquip.com/tools/resume.
Start from scratch or upload what you have
Open the builder and type section by section, or upload a PDF, Word file, or plain text resume. CQ AI extracts the facts you already listed, reorganizes them into ATS-friendly sections, and suggests stronger bullet language — without inventing degrees, employers, or licenses you did not provide. Paste a job description if you want keyword alignment for a specific posting.
You can still run quick assists on any draft: improve the summary, tune keywords, polish the whole document, or generate bullets for a single role. Everything uses the same secure AI stack ClassQuip already runs for classroom tools — no separate signup flow.
Templates that stay readable
Pick a layout that matches the story you are telling:
- Classic — straightforward sections for any ATS.
- Modern — clean type with a subtle accent bar.
- Compact — tighter spacing when you need one page.
- Educator — certifications and licenses up front.
Preview updates live as you edit. When you are ready, download plain text for picky portals or export a PDF from the preview.
Private by default
CQ Resume does not ask you to create a ClassQuip account. Drafts save in your browser only — up to a dozen versions on that device — so a resume you are still shaping does not sit on a server waiting for a login you never wanted. Clear the browser storage when you are done, or keep iterating locally through application season.
This is the first entry in ClassQuip Tools, a small set of free helpers we are putting next to the classroom product. If CQ Resume saves you an hour this week, tell us what to ship next — hello@classquip.com.
