SOUND FAMILIAR?

Strong resume content can still be weakened by the wrong structure

The format choice feels arbitrary

Chronological, hybrid, and functional layouts can seem interchangeable until you compare them against your actual work history.

Important evidence is hard to find

A weak layout can bury relevant experience, skills, dates, or certifications before a recruiter reaches them.

The section order works against your story

Even strong content loses impact when the first half of the resume does not make your direction clear.

The design may not survive a real scan

Crowded spacing, visual tricks, or complex templates can reduce clarity for both readers and ATS systems.

 
WHAT'S INSIDE

Inside the checklist

Know the Main Formats

Compare chronological, hybrid, and functional structures before committing to a resume layout.

Match the Format to Your Story

Align the format with career continuity, transitions, experience level, and the amount of relevant proof you have.

Watch for Risk Signals

Spot layouts that obscure chronology, weaken evidence, or create unnecessary ATS parsing concerns.

Build a Useful Section Order

Arrange contact details, summary, experience, education, and certifications around the needs of the target role.

Test the Reader Experience

Review the resume through a quick scan, page-balance check, export test, and top-to-bottom logic check.

Use AI to Compare Versions

Use focused prompts to compare clarity, ATS friendliness, emphasis, section order, and overall brevity.

What about customs?

We are not responsible for any custom fees once the items have shipped. By purchasing our products, you consent that one or more packages may be shipped to you and may get custom fees when they arrive to your country.

Do you provide tracking information?

Yes, you will receive an email once your order ships that contains your tracking information. If you haven’t received tracking info within 5 days, please contact us.

My tracking says “no information available at the moment”.

For some shipping companies, it takes 2-5 business days for the tracking information to update on the system. If your order was placed more than 5 business days ago and there is still no information on your tracking number, please contact us.

Will my items be sent in one package?

For logistical reasons, items in the same purchase will sometimes be sent in separate packages, even if you've specified combined shipping.

If you have any other questions, please contact us and we will do our best to help you out.

Returns

Order cancellation

All orders can be cancelled until they are shipped. If your order has been paid and you need to make a change or cancel an order, you must contact us within 12 hours. Once the packaging and shipping process has started, it can no longer be cancelled.

Refunds

Your satisfaction is our #1 priority. Therefore, you can request a refund or reshipment for ordered products if:

  • If you did not receive the product within the guaranteed time (45 days not including 1-3 day processing) you can request a refund or a reshipment.
  • If you received the wrong item you can request a refund or a reshipment.
  • If you do not want the product you’ve received you may request a refund but you must return the item at your expense and the item must be unused.

We do not issue the refund if:

  • Your order did not arrive due to factors within your control (i.e. providing the wrong shipping address)
  • Your order did not arrive due to exceptional circumstances outside of our control (i.e. not cleared by customs, delayed by a natural disaster).
  • Other exceptional circumstances outside of our control.

*You can submit refund requests within 15 days after the guaranteed period for delivery (45 days) has expired. You can do it by sending a message at support@sellvia.com

Exchanges

If for any reason you would like to exchange your product, perhaps for a different size in clothing, you must contact us first and we will guide you through the steps.

Please do not send your purchase back to us unless we authorise you to do so.
