QR Codes for Resumes

A QR code on your resume gives recruiters a one-tap path to your portfolio, LinkedIn, or contact card, even from a printed page. Design a clean code that fits your layout and export it ready for both print and PDF. It is generated entirely in your browser, so your personal details are never uploaded.

Put a QR code on your resume

Why put a QR code on resumes?

Lets recruiters jump from a paper or PDF resume straight to your live work in one scan.
A vCard code saves your name, phone, and email into their contacts instantly, making follow-up easy.
Static codes never expire and have no scan limits, so an old printed copy keeps working.
A clean, minimal code style keeps your resume looking professional rather than gimmicky.
Export SVG for crisp print and PDF output at any resume size.
Free and private, so you can tailor a fresh code for each application without a subscription.

What to link your QR code to

Link to an online portfolio or personal website that shows work a page cannot.
Point to your LinkedIn profile for a fuller professional history and recommendations.
Encode a vCard so recruiters save your contact details in a single scan.
Link to a GitHub, Behance, or Dribbble profile relevant to your field.
Send reviewers to a video introduction or project case study.
Add an email code for one-tap outreach straight to your inbox.

Tips for QR codes on resumes

Place one well-chosen code near your contact details and link it to a portfolio, vCard, or LinkedIn rather than scattering several codes.
Keep the code small and monochrome so it stays professional and does not overpower the layout.
Export SVG so the code stays sharp in both printed copies and PDFs viewed on screen.
Verify the link with the Debug tool before applying, since a dead or wrong URL on a resume looks careless.

Frequently asked questions

What is the best thing to link from a resume QR code?

Your portfolio or personal site, your LinkedIn profile, or a vCard. A vCard is great when you want recruiters to save your contact details instantly.

Does a resume QR code track who scans it?

No. These are static codes with no scan tracking or analytics. They simply open the link or contact card you encoded.

What format should I use for a resume?

SVG keeps the code crisp in print and PDF. Use PNG if a particular application portal only accepts raster images.
