Hello Product Hunters! I am the founder of CakeResume. I built the site to solve my own problem - I built some websites and apps before, and wanted to create a page to showcase my projects. But I couldn't find a tool that can help me build this page easily without content restrictions. So I built the website by myself. CakeResume is more than a resume, it's a hybrid of a traditional resume and a personal website. It helps you introduce yourself in the way you prefer. By the drag-and-drop editor, I make sure everyone can create an unique and vivid self introduction. Hope you like it. Thank you! Best, Trantor

@trantorliu It sounds great! Before I go exploring, is a premium service?

@trantorliu · The founder of CakeResume
@nadeburg It's basically free. You can pay $9.99 to buy premium resume snippets, or invite 2 friends to join to get them for free. Besides that, you can create CakeResume Career Pages (beta) for free right now - https://www.cakeresume.com/caree...

@trantorliu Why oh why not a login with LinkedIn which already fills out most of the fields?

@trantorliu The problem I have is many relatives who ask me to polish up their resumes, either for themselves or their son/daughter. Personally I haven't updated my resume in years but this is definitely going to make it easier for me to say no to the relatives :) Awesome!

@ipears Since CakeResume is not approved to use "Apply with Linkedin" function. With "Login with LinkedIn", I can only get basic info. Besides, I would like to see more people introduce themselves in a unique way, so I don't provide templates for them to fill out. I know this is though, but or UI/UX already inspired thousands of people to share their stories. For example, some people share their travel experience, volunteer experience, school activities, and etc. That what people don't usually share on their LinkedIn profile.
