Reactive Resume lets you share your resume via a public URL that anyone can access. When you make your resume public, it becomes available at a unique link that you can share with human recipients such as recruiters, collaborators, or portfolio visitors. Public resume URLs are not search-indexed by default.

​
Key benefits of public sharing

Always up-to-date

Viewers always see the latest version of your resume. No need to send new files when you make updates.

Track engagement

See public view counters in the builder.

Password protection

Optionally require a password so only people you trust can access your resume.

Easy to share

A simple URL that works anywhere—email signatures, LinkedIn, portfolios, job applications.

​
How to enable public sharing

1

Open your resume in the builder

Navigate to your resume in the resume builder.
2

Go to the Sharing section

In the right sidebar, select Sharing.
3

Toggle 'Allow Public Access'

Turn on the Allow Public Access switch. Once enabled, your resume will be accessible via its public URL.

4

Copy your public URL

Your public URL is displayed below the toggle. It follows this format:
https://rxresu.me/{username}/{slug}
Click the copy button to copy the URL to your clipboard.
The {slug} is the unique, URL-safe name you assign to your resume when you create it. If you want to change your slug, go to the dashboard, right-click your resume card, and choose “Update” to edit its details.

​
How the public URL works

When someone visits your public resume URL:
  1. They see the live version - The page renders your current resume data with all your latest changes
  2. No account required - Visitors don’t need a Reactive Resume account to view or download your resume
  3. They can download a PDF - Visitors can use the download button on the public page
  4. Views are tracked - Visits are counted in your resume statistics (see below)
Changes you make in the builder are reflected immediately on the public URL. There’s no separate “publish” step—your public resume is always in sync. Treat the link as something you send to people directly, not as a search profile page.

​
Tracking public engagement

When your resume is public, Reactive Resume tracks public views. This helps you understand whether people are opening the link you shared.

​
Where to find statistics

In the resume builder, open the right sidebar and select Statistics. You’ll see public view information such as:
MetricDescription
ViewsNumber of times your public resume page was visited
Last viewedThe date when your resume was last viewed
Statistics are only shown after public sharing is enabled. If you turn off public access, existing stats are preserved.

​
What counts as a view?

A view is counted each time someone loads your public resume page. This includes:
  • Direct visits to your public URL
  • Clicks from links you’ve shared
Owner self-visits while you are signed in to your account are not included in the view statistics.
Only you can see your resume’s view statistics. Visitors to your public URL cannot see how many views your resume has.

​
Password protecting your resume

If you want to share your resume with specific people but keep it private from the general public, you can add password protection. When password protection is enabled:
  • Visitors must enter the correct password to view your resume
  • The password prompt appears before any resume content is shown
  • You can share the password separately with trusted individuals

​
How to set a password

1

Enable public access

First, make sure Allow Public Access is turned on in the Sharing section.
2

Click Set Password

Below the public URL, click Set Password.
3

Enter your password

Type a password (6-64 characters) and confirm. This password will be required to view your resume.
4

Share the password separately

Share the password with your intended audience through a secure channel (e.g., direct message, email).
Choose a password you’re comfortable sharing. Anyone with the password can view and download your resume.

​
How to remove password protection

If you no longer need password protection:
  1. Go to the Sharing section in the right sidebar
  2. Click Remove Password
  3. Confirm the action
Your resume will become accessible to anyone with the public URL.

​
Use cases for public sharing

Add your public resume URL to your LinkedIn profile’s Featured section or Contact Info. Recruiters can view your detailed resume directly.
Include your resume link in your email signature. Anyone you correspond with can quickly access your resume.
Embed or link to your resume from your personal website. The link always shows your latest resume.
Some applications accept a link to your resume, while others require a file upload. Use the public URL when a link is accepted, and export a PDF when an upload is required.
Share your resume URL via QR code or NFC. Update your resume before the event and everyone gets the latest version.

​
Turning off public access

To make your resume private again:
  1. Go to the Sharing section in the right sidebar
  2. Turn off the Allow Public Access switch
When public access is disabled:
  • Your public URL returns a “not found” error
  • Existing links stop working immediately
  • Your statistics are preserved (they’ll resume if you re-enable public access)
  • Password protection settings are preserved
If you only want to temporarily hide your resume, consider using password protection instead of disabling public access entirely. This way, your URL remains active for people who have the password.

​
Copying the URL from the builder dock

The builder dock includes a Copy URL shortcut. It copies the same public URL shown in the Sharing section.
Copying the URL does not enable public access. Turn on Allow Public Access in the Sharing section before sending the link to someone else.

No. By default, public resume URLs are meant for human recipients who receive the link from you, not as search profile pages. If you want tighter access control, use password protection or keep your resume private.

No, Reactive Resume tracks public view counts, not the identity of visitors. This protects visitor privacy.
