One of the new features on the 3.0 version of our resume maker is that the PDF resume editor allows users to create unlimited sections of their CVs.
Most of the sections have subsections in order to add subsets of information inside sections such as work experiences, degrees, skills, achievements, etc.
Sections are always composed by a section title and their content. The content can be a fixed element or a set of subsections. Some sections allow users to edit text formatting such as adding lists, links highlighting or bold text elements, etc.
In order to completely delete a section, simply use the icon on the right top corner of the section you need to telete.
Sorting sections is easy, use the arrow icons ( ) to sort sections up and down or sidewise.
