Designers, developers, and studios can showcase their works here to find relevant customers and boost sales. Most vendors promote brands by name to increase business awareness and trust, like ResumeInventor, who joined the team in 2018. Now the author has almost 300 products for sale and 1.378 sales. We took an interview from the Resume Inventor design studio to cover the most exciting readers’ questions.

Before we start the graphic design interview, let's take a quick look at the Resume Inventor design studio's products. These are high-quality templates that allow building the following projects:

  • Personal website;
  • CV page;
  • Creator portfolio;
  • Material presentation, etc.

All products come with flexible visual elements users can set via most popular editors. They have responsive design and easy-to-change color solutions. Every template has some pre-styled fields to put essential information, but you can play with the CV design to make it look just as you want. We’ll overlook a few products after the interview, and now it’s time to answer some graphic design questions.

How did you decide to start your career as a resume designer?

Resume Inventor

The choice of profession was not an obvious decision in my case, because I have always had many hobbies in my life. Nevertheless, the passion for a classic resume template stood up, among other passions. After college, it was time to look for a job. I needed a good template to create an outstanding resume, but I could not get one. Here is how the idea to start ResumeInventor came to me. I wanted to help everyone looking for a job to create an outstanding resume that will help them get a job.

How do you measure your growth as a designer? Do you compare your new works with the old ones?

Resume Inventor

While achievements can measure growth, I rate my work by testimonials I receive from people who used my items and got a job. It includes managers and executive directors. When such people are happy with my resume templates, this is enough proof that I have grown. I don’t track my progress by comparing my old works to new ones, but rather see the impact they made on different people looking for a job and who have used my products.

How long does it take to create a resume template? What is the process?

Resume Inventor

Resume template creation takes 1-2 days. We start with brainstorming and generation of ideas. Once the team is through it, we start working in Adobe Illustrator software to pick a  popular product color. Then we create multiple file formats for the template and design a right preview image to showcase the final resume design. Title research and metadata are the next. And then, we choose the best time to upload the item for sale.

What would you recommend for those who just started designing?

Resume Inventor

No matter what you choose, the heart and soul count. But it would be best if you understood that, as a designer, you are not an artist who satisfies personal requirements, but a service provider who works for a customer. Keep in mind that design quality and trend and paramount. Focus on quality, not quantity. The design quality and skill improvements should be overriding.
