How to reset your password
If you sign in with an email and password and cannot remember the password, you can set a new one from the log-in page.
-
On the log-in page, click Forgot? beside the password field.
-
Type the email address on your account and click Send reset link.
The page also points out that a Google sign-in has no password to reset. -
Open the email and click the link. It works for one hour.
-
Choose a new password. Resumonk then sends you back to the log-in page to use it.
If you sign in with Google
There is no password on your account, so there is nothing to reset. Go back to the log-in page and click Continue with Google.
If you would rather have a password as well, sign in with Google first, then set one on your account page. Both ways work after that.
Good to know
- The page always says the link is on its way, whether or not an account matches. That is deliberate: it stops anyone using the form to find out who has an account.
- If nothing arrives, check the spam folder, then try any other address you might have joined with.
- An expired link is not a dead end. The page it opens offers you a fresh one.
- Setting a new password signs you out everywhere else. Anyone still signed in on another device has to sign in again.
