Google Docs Resume Templates
How do I get a resume template for Google Docs?
Pick a Resumly template, let AI fill in your experience, and export it to PDF or Word (.docx). Google Docs opens .docx files directly — upload the Word version to Google Drive and open it in Docs to edit. Resumly has no native .gdoc export, but this gets your design into Docs.
Looking for a Google Docs resume template usually means starting from a blank, generic layout and typing everything yourself. Resumly works differently: you choose from 200+ professionally designed templates, let AI fill them with your real experience, and then export the result.
Here is the honest workflow. Resumly does not export native Google Docs (.gdoc) files and there is no Docs add-on. Instead, you export your finished resume to PDF or Word (.docx). Because Google Docs opens .docx files directly, you can upload the Word version to Google Drive and edit it in Docs. The upside over a blank Docs template is that yours arrives already AI-filled and ATS-checked.

Frequently asked questions
Does Resumly export native Google Docs (.gdoc) files?
No. Resumly does not have native Google Docs export or a Docs add-on. You export your resume to PDF or Word (.docx), then open the .docx in Google Docs by uploading it to Google Drive — Google Docs reads .docx files directly.
How do I open my Resumly resume in Google Docs?
Export your finished resume as a Word (.docx) file. In Google Drive, click New, upload the .docx, then right-click it and choose Open with Google Docs. You can edit it from there like any Docs file.
Are the templates free to use?
Yes. You can pick any template and build your resume free — no credit card required. Export to PDF or Word and continue in Google Docs if you prefer.
Will the design survive opening in Google Docs?
Google Docs converts .docx files, and most layouts come across cleanly, though very complex formatting can shift slightly. For pixel-perfect results, export the PDF; for editing in Docs, the .docx is the right choice.
Are these templates ATS-friendly?
Yes. Every layout is built around clean, parseable structure, and you can run the free ATS resume checker to confirm parsing, keywords, and formatting before you apply — whether you finish in Resumly, Google Docs, or Word.
