This guide covers every way to get into your account, including what to do when you have forgotten your password or lost your authenticator app.

Sign in with your password

1

Open the sign-in page

Go to rxresu.me and select Sign in beside Build your resume in the header. The closing section near the bottom of the homepage also has a Sign in link. Either opens Sign in to your account directly.
2

Enter your email or username

The Email address field also accepts your username.
3

Enter your password and select Sign in

Select the eye icon next to the field to check what you typed.
If you are already signed in, the homepage’s main buttons say Go to dashboard and return to your workspace.

Direct sign-in from the homepage

If you have turned on two-step verification, Reactive Resume asks for a code next. See Enter a two-step code below. If the email, username or password doesn’t match, check what you typed or select Forgot password?. The recovery link is reachable by keyboard and keeps the page you were trying to open.

Sign in to your account

Sign in with a passkey

If you have added a passkey, select Passkey under or continue with and confirm with your fingerprint, face, device PIN or security key. Many browsers also offer your passkey as a suggestion when you click the Email address field. Signing in with a passkey skips the password and the two-step code.

Sign in with Google, GitHub or LinkedIn

Select the provider’s button and approve the request on its site. The buttons appear only when the site has set them up. Self-hosted copies may show a single button named after your organization’s sign-in service instead. A social button signs you in to the account that is linked to that provider. If no account uses that email yet, a new one is created, unless the site has turned off new sign-ups. An existing account with the same email is linked automatically only when the provider confirms the email address is verified; otherwise, sign in and link the provider from Settings.

Reset a forgotten password

1

Select Forgot password?

The link sits next to the Password label on the sign-in page.
2

Enter your email and send the link

Type the email address on your account and select Send reset link.
3

Open the link in the email

The Reset your password page says what a reset removes. Enter a New password of at least 8 characters and select Reset password. You’re signed out on this browser too and return to the sign-in page, where you can use the new password.

Request a password reset

Resetting your password signs you out everywhere and removes your passkeys, API keys and the apps you connected, so anyone who got into your account loses access. Create new keys and reconnect apps afterwards. If you had never confirmed your email address, the reset also removes two-step sign-in and linked social accounts that were added before it. An expired or already-used link stays on the reset page with an explanation. Select Send a new link to request another email. If a two-step sign-in expires, you’re returned to sign-in with an explanation; enter your password again.

Request another link when a reset link has expired

Password reset needs email delivery. On a self-hosted copy without email set up, Forgot password? says reset isn’t available there; ask the person who runs it for help.

Enter a two-step code

After your password, the Two-step verification page asks for the 6-digit code from your authenticator app. Type it in. The page submits as soon as the sixth digit is in, or you can select Verify. The first box has focus, so you can start typing straight away. A wrong code is cleared, ready for the next try. Trust this device for 30 days skips the code on this browser for 30 days. Changing your password or signing out of other devices doesn’t end it early; turning two-step verification off ends it on the browser you’re using.

Enter the current authenticator code

Use a backup code instead

If you don’t have your authenticator app, select Lost access to your authenticator?, enter one of the backup codes you saved when you turned on two-step verification, and select Verify. The backup-code field has focus when the page opens, so you can type straight away. Each backup code works once. You can paste it as shown, including the hyphen, or type the two groups together (K7QXM-4PZR2 or K7QXM4PZR2). Codes made since November 2026 use capitals without look-alike characters, and you can type them in lower case. Older codes mix capitals and lower case: type those exactly as saved. If you’ve lost your backup codes too, select No backup codes either? If you never verified your email address, a password reset turns two-step verification off. Otherwise a reset keeps it on, so ask the person who runs the server to turn it off for your account, then sign in and set it up again.

When your session ends

If your session ends while you’re working, a notice offers Sign in again in another tab. Keep the original tab open: your forms and unsaved resume edits stay there. Sign in to the same account, return to the original tab and retry the save. The resume’s save line says Not saved · Sign in to save until sign-in is restored. Signing in to a different account clears the previous account’s open work so it cannot be saved under the wrong account.
