Getting Started Overview

Everything in xptracker starts and ends with labels.

Labels are the building blocks that let you instantly filter your resume for the exact skill set a job posting or recruiter is looking for. By defining a handful of meaningful tags up front, you give yourself a powerful way to showcase the most relevant experiences and skillsets — no matter what industry you're applying for.

Create Your First Labels

Access the "Labels" page from the left-hand navigation menu. If you're already logged in, here's a quick link.

  • Add a few core tags that reflect the primary domains of expertise you wish highlight. Here's a few examples of some starter labels:
    • For an IT adjacent role: Backend, Frontend, Unit Testing, DevOps, APIs, ...
    • For a healthcare role: Cardiology, Clinical Research, Patient Care, Medical Imaging, ...

Populate Your Resume Sections

Once you have a couple of labels ready, begin populating any relevant sections of your resume by either accessing their corresponding pages in the left-hand navigation menu, or by using the dashboard. The dashboard page allows you to preview what your resume will look like with any label selections in place, as well as download your resume to `.docx` format.

Thats All It Takes

How many details you enter is entirely up to you! As you continue to use the platform, you'll quickly realize what works best for you and what doesn't. You can edit any existing labels you already have in place, as well as create any number of new ones.

Sharing Resumes

You can share your resume if you choose to make it public, which can be done from your dashboard page. Upon making it public, you'll be asigned a unique endpoint URL that you can share with anyone you like. This endpoint can be updated once-per-day. Please keep in mind that if you change your endpoint, you'll have to re-share links to your resume.
