Move resume items between sections or across pages in the Reactive Resume builder to reorganize content and split lengthy sections cleanly.
If you have a long work history or extensive project list, you may want to split items across multiple pages or reorganize them into different sections. The Move to feature lets you do exactly that—quickly relocate any item to another section or page with just a few clicks.
Navigate to your resume and open it in the builder.
Make sure you have at least one item in a section (e.g., an experience entry, project, or skill) before proceeding.
2
Locate the item you want to move
In the left sidebar, find the section containing the item you want to relocate. Click on the section to expand it and view all items.

Open the item dropdown menu
Each item has a dropdown menu (three-dot icon or chevron) on the right side. Click this icon to reveal the available actions.

Hover over 'Move to'
In the dropdown menu, hover over or click the Move to option. This will open a submenu showing all
available destinations.
5
Select a destination
The submenu displays available destinations organized by:
Existing sections of the same type (e.g., other Experience sections)
Pages where you can place the item
Custom sections if any exist
Click on your desired destination to move the item there.

If a custom section of the same type doesn’t exist on your target page, Reactive Resume will automatically create one for you. This makes it easy to split sections across pages without manual setup.
6
Verify the move
After selecting a destination, the item will be moved immediately. You can verify by:
Checking the destination section in the left sidebar
Looking at the resume preview to see where the item now appears
A common use case is when your work history is too long to fit on a single page. Here’s how to handle it:
1
Identify items to move
Review your Experience section and decide which roles should appear on page 1 (typically your most recent and relevant positions) and which can go on page 2.
2
Move older positions
For each older position you want to relocate:
Open the item’s dropdown menu
Click Move to
Select Page 2 (or the appropriate page)
If no Experience section exists on page 2, a new custom section will be created automatically with the same type, so your formatting stays consistent.
3
Review the result
Check the resume preview to ensure:
Page 1 contains your most important, recent roles
Page 2 continues with your earlier experience
The section headings and styling remain consistent
Keep it logical: Maintain chronological order within each page. Move complete job entries rather than splitting a
single role across pages.
Use custom section names: After moving items to a new custom section, you can rename it (e.g., “Earlier
Experience” or “Additional Projects”) to provide context for recruiters.
Moving items reorganizes your content but doesn’t affect the data itself. You can always move items back or to
different sections as needed.
Make sure you’re clicking the dropdown menu on a section item (like an individual job or project), not the section header itself. The Move to feature is only available for items within sections.
The Move to submenu shows destinations compatible with the item type. For example, an Experience item can only be moved to other Experience-type sections. If you need to change an item’s type entirely, you may need to recreate it in the desired section.
If you’re moving to a page that already has a section of the same type, the item will be added to that existing section rather than creating a new one. This is by design to avoid duplicate sections.
