Who can do this: Owners and Admins · Product: Resume Builder · Where: Settings → Field management and Settings → Candidate appearance
To show resume headings in another language, rename the fields in Field management and the sections in Candidate appearance. The candidate's own text stays as written. You change it in the profile editor.
Rename a field
Click your name at the bottom left, then click Settings.
Under Candidate settings, click Field management.
Hover over the field's row and click Edit at the far right, or click the field title. A default field (like Skills) opens Rename default field. A custom field opens Edit custom field.
Enter the new name in Field title, for example "Compétences" for Skills.
Click Update field.
Rename a section
In Settings, click Candidate appearance, then click Edit on the appearance you use.
On the Candidate profile tab, click the section on the right.
Enter the new name in Section name on the left.
Click Save.
What happens next
The new names show on profiles that use the field, and on new exports.
How do I translate the candidate's text?
Field and section names are labels. The text inside them, like the summary or job descriptions, comes from the resume. To change it, open the profile, click Edit and change the text. For long text, Ask AI can translate it, for example with the instruction "Translate into German". See Use Ask AI to rewrite, shorten or translate text.
Good to know
On a default field you can change the Field title, the internal description and Restricted field. Its type stays the same, and there's no visibility setting.
You can keep several appearances, for example one per client. See Set up candidate templates (candidate appearance).
The date format is a branding setting (Start-End Date Format). See Change the resume layout, font and dates.
Common questions
Can I change the resume language to Dutch, French or German?
Yes, for headings: rename the fields and sections as described in this article. The candidate's text needs to be edited in the profile, by hand or with Ask AI.
Pro tip: A new field title shows on every profile that uses the field. Section names belong to one candidate appearance, so you can translate sections in a second appearance and keep the English one.
