Free Resume & Job Search Printables Pack — 10 PDFs from Cover Letter to Day-90 Plan
The whole search, from ‘starting to look’ to ‘first 90 days’. Resume, cover letter, pipeline kanban, STAR interview drill, salary negotiation, references, performance review. Print, fill, ship.
Phase 1 — Application package
Resume + cover letter + references = the three documents every application needs.
Resume / CV Template
Three layouts (Modern sidebar, Classic centered, Minimal) — fillable on the page, ATS-friendly.
Open generator →Cover Letter (Letter Writing Template)
Formal block layout with greeting, body, sign-off — repurpose for your cover letters.
Open generator →Professional Reference List
Standalone reference page (3 references) — the document that goes with the resume in round 2.
Open generator →Resume Version Tracker
Which resume version went to which company — avoids the 'wait, did I send v3 or v4?' moment.
Open generator →Phase 2 — Active search
Pipeline kanban, networking, applications.
Job Search Pipeline Board
Kanban: Researching → Applied → Phone screen → On-site → Offer. One sticky note per company.
Open generator →Networking 1:1 Prep Sheet
Background, ask, conversation topics, follow-up — turns a coffee chat into actionable signal.
Open generator →Interview Log
Quick log of every conversation — keeps the pipeline organized when 5 companies are in motion.
Open generator →Phase 3 — Interview prep
STAR stories, compensation comparison, salary negotiation.
Interview Prep Sheet (STAR Stories)
10-12 STAR stories (Situation / Task / Action / Result) — the prep that beats memorizing answers.
Open generator →Compensation / Offer Comparison
Side-by-side base + bonus + equity + benefits + COL — for when 2-3 offers are open.
Open generator →Salary Negotiation Worksheet
Anchor, walk-away, BATNA, scripts — turns 'thanks for the offer' into '+15%.'
Open generator →Phase 4 — After you sign
First 90 days and the year-one performance review.
How to use the pack
- Start with the resume template. Pick a layout, fill once, print to PDF, save as ‘Resume — Master.’
- For each application, tweak the resume into a tailored version — log it in the version tracker so you know what to expect when the recruiter calls.
- Once you're getting interviews, build 10-12 stories with the STAR sheet. These cover ~80% of behavioral questions across any 5-round process.
- Got an offer? Don't accept until you've filled the negotiation sheet. Average uplift from one round of negotiation: 7–12%.
- Day 1 of new job: print the 90-day plan and revisit weekly.
Why printables beat resume builders
The Big Resume Builders charge $20-30/month and produce templates the ATS chokes on. A clean fillable PDF with proper structure parses better and costs nothing. The same logic applies to interview prep — the work is in the thinking, not the tooling.
