TapX

For career centers

Help Students Show Up Ready

Copy-and-paste resources you can send before your next career fair. Free, no account, nothing to install.

TapX lets a student upload a resume, get a QR code, and keep it on their phone or in Apple Wallet. Recruiters scan the code and the resume opens. Students do not need an account and career centers do not need to set anything up.

What students do

  1. 1Upload a resume PDF.
  2. 2Enter a name.
  3. 3Save the QR code, or add the pass to Apple Wallet.
  4. 4Show the code when a recruiter asks for a resume.

What the Apple Wallet pass looks like

A name and a large QR code. Recruiters scan it the same way they scan a ticket.

2. Upload your resume as a PDF
3. Enter your name
4. Save your QR code, and add it to Apple Wallet if you use an iPhone

It's free and takes about a minute. Bring a few printed copies too.

Career fair prep tip: put your resume in your phone.

Upload it at https://share.tapxos.com, get a QR code, and add it to Apple Wallet. When a recruiter asks for your resume, they scan it and it opens on their phone.

Still bring paper copies. Just don't run out.

How to set up your resume QR code

1. Go to https://share.tapxos.com
2. Upload your resume (PDF works best)
3. Enter your name
4. Save your QR code image
5. iPhone: tap Add to Apple Wallet
6. Test it by scanning with a friend's phone

Anyone who scans your code can view your resume, so share it with people you want to have it.

What to tell students about privacy

  • Anyone with the QR code or link can view the shared resume.
  • Students should share it with recruiters, not post it publicly.
  • Students can replace their resume later and keep the same code.
  • Remind students to remove a home address from a resume they plan to share widely.
