Frequently asked questions
Practical details about formatting, ATS compatibility, and customizing the Vienna Lebenslauf template.
Is the Austrian CV different from the German one?
The structure is very similar. The differences are mostly in qualification names, reference documents (Dienstzeugnis) and slightly more formal tone.
Should I include my date of birth?
Only if the employer asks. Austrian practice has moved towards omitting personal data that is irrelevant to the role.
Is the Vienna Lebenslauf template really ATS-friendly?
ATS products and employer configurations differ, so this template cannot guarantee parsing or screening results. Check the layout and exported text, use accurate role-specific content, and follow the employer's file instructions. Any compatibility percentage shown on this page is not an independent test by an ATS provider.
Can I download my resume as a PDF or Word file for free?
You can export a PDF, Microsoft Word (DOCX), or plain-text (TXT) file without a watermark. Review the downloaded file before sending it and follow the employer's requested file format. ATS products and employer settings differ, so no template or export can guarantee parsing in every system.
Is this resume template completely free?
The resume builder and PDF, DOCX, and TXT exports are available without payment or an account. Online AI or analysis tools may depend on service availability; see the Privacy Policy for details about how submitted information is processed.
Do I need to create an account to use this template?
