Why these templates

Parsers read a page top to bottom. The templates here keep one column, real headings and plain bullets, so the system that stores your résumé files it under the right name, dates and employers. Our Check tab shows the parser's view of any of them before you send.

  • Plain

    One column, black ink, nothing to parse wrong. The template to send through an applicant tracking system.

  • Harvard

    Classic serif with small caps. For law, finance, academia and anyone who wants to look settled.

  • Modern

    A confident one-column layout with one accent colour and skills as pills. Product, marketing, operations.

  • Timeline

    Dates on a vertical line with a dot per role, so the career reads in one pass. Engineering, operations, consulting.

  • Swiss

    Section labels in a left gutter, content on a strict grid, one heavy rule. Design, architecture, engineering.

  • Editorial

    A magazine profile: light serif name, italic deck, double rule, dash bullets. Writers, researchers, senior roles.

  • Executive

    A full-width colour band for the name, small-caps headings with a short bar. Management, finance, sales leadership.

  • Scholar

    The academic CV: centred serif name, small-caps titles over hairlines, no colour. Research, teaching, publications and awards.

  • Fresh

    For a first job: a short accent underline, a prominent headline, skills as pills and room to breathe. Students, graduates, internships.
