QR Codes for Resumes free
A resume gives you one or two pages to make a case — a QR code extends it. Place a small code near your header linking to your portfolio, LinkedIn profile, or a project you're proud of, and a recruiter holding the paper version is one scan from your full body of work. It's a subtle signal too: you think about how information travels, not just what it says.
The name goes into the PDF exactly as typed; the on-screen color is an approximation and print output may differ.
Save your brand colors once, reuse them on every code. Stored in this browser.

With a dynamic code, yes — you get scan counts with country and device breakdowns, so you know when a printed resume generated real interest.
Is there a watermark on the code?＋
No. Codes download clean with no watermark or branding, in both PNG and SVG formats.
