<Step title="Name your resume">
Fill in the resume name. This can be a generic name (e.g., “General Resume”) or something tied to the position youre applying for.

If you cant think of a name yet, click the magic wand button to generate a random name for you.
</Tip>
</Step>
<Step title="Review (or edit) the slug">
The <Badge>Slug</Badge> field is auto-filled based on the name, but you can change it to anything you like.

If you choose to publicly share your resume, it will be accessible at `https://rxresu.me/{username}/{slug}`.

<Step title="Add tags (optional)">
Add any <Badge>Tags</Badge> you want. Think of tags like folders or labels to help organize many resumes.

Click **Create** to start with an empty resume, or open the split-button menu and choose **Create a Sample Resume** to start with sample content.
