Let recruiters see your work and save your details
To put a QR code on your resume, start from the Resume QR template in Studio. It builds a contact page with your photo, name, the role you want, a short note, a main button to your portfolio, LinkedIn and GitHub links, tap to call and email, and Save contact. Generate a small, plain code and place it near your contact details. You can update the links as your work grows, and copies you've already sent open the new version.
Why the printed version falls short
Recruiters won't type a long portfolio address from paper
A one-page resume has no room to show your work
Contact details get copied by hand and mistyped
Links on old copies of your resume go out of date

Frequently asked questions
Will a QR code look out of place on a resume?
Not if it's small and sits with your contact details. Add a short label such as Portfolio and contact.
Can I see which recruiter scanned it?
No. Scans are anonymous. You see counts over time, device type and approximate city.
What if my portfolio moves?
Change the link in Studio and publish again. Copies you've already sent open the new link.
Will the code keep working during a long job search?
On the free plan, dynamic codes stay live for 14 days after publishing, then pause until you upgrade. A one-time $5 payment keeps one code live for good, or a paid plan keeps your codes live while it's active.
Do I have to show my home address?
No. Only the details you fill in appear on the page. The template uses a city rather than a street address.
