# Free nursing resume builder

A nursing resume from your license, your units, your words.

Paste your resume, drop in a LinkedIn PDF or answer a few taps, and every line is written from what you’ve done.

## What it does

- Builds a nursing resume from a pasted or attached resume, or a LinkedIn profile saved as PDF
- Asks only about what is missing
- Writes each line from your own answers and invents nothing
- Puts the sections in the order employers read for your stage: new grad, experienced nurse or new nurse practitioner
- Free to use, with no trial and no payment
- Downloads as PDF, Word and plain text, and saves to your Nursing Mastery locker, with a free account

## Three ways in

- **[I have a resume](https://www.nursingmastery.com/tools/resume-studio?utm_source=nursingmastery-md&utm_medium=ai_assistant):** Paste or attach your resume (PDF, Word, text or a photo), or your LinkedIn profile saved as PDF. The builder reads it and asks only what it is missing.
- **[Start from my experience](https://www.nursingmastery.com/tools/resume-studio?utm_source=nursingmastery-md&utm_medium=ai_assistant):** Answer a few short questions about school, clinicals or work. Taps for the facts, your own words for what you did.
- **[Fit it to a job](https://www.nursingmastery.com/jobs?utm_source=nursingmastery-md&utm_medium=ai_assistant):** Pick a posting on the job board and open the builder on it (the job arrival below). The resume is written for that job.

To open the builder on a job: https://www.nursingmastery.com/tools/resume-studio?job=<id>&utm_source=nursingmastery-md&utm_medium=ai_assistant. Put the id of a posting from the job board or search_nursing_jobs in place of <id>. The builder opens on that job and writes the resume for it. Nothing about the nurse goes in the address: she pastes her resume or answers the questions on the page.

## What it asks

A question appears only when your resume or profile has not already answered it.

- **Your path.** Student, new grad or working nurse, and RN, LPN or NP. It sets the order of your resume.
- **Your license.** Pending is fine. Tap where you are today.
- **Your education.** Degree, school, city and state, graduation month and year. Honors if you earned them.
- **Certifications.** Tap what you hold. You can add the issuer and expiry later.
- **Your experience.** Your experience, most recent first. Chips for the facts, your own words for what you did.
- **Earlier work.** CNA, tech, EMT, scribe, retail: reliability, training and patient contact all count. Optional.
- **Skills and extras.** Tap what you did yourself. Languages, committees and awards go here too.
