Which template should you pick?

  • Classic — conservative industries: law, finance, government, academia.
  • Modern — tech, marketing, product: clean and readable on screen.
  • Compact — long histories that must fit on one page.
  • Executive — managers and directors.
  • Minimal — design, writing and early-career resumes.
  • Technical — engineers and data roles: skills first, keyword-dense.

Ready? Open the builder — it starts with an example so you can see each template filled in.

Questions

What makes a resume template ATS-friendly?

Real text (not an image), standard section headings like Experience and Education, a clear reading order, and no text hidden in tables, headers or text boxes. All our templates follow these rules; single-column ones are the safest.

Are two-column resumes bad for ATS?

Modern systems usually parse them, but single-column layouts remove the risk. Our Sidebar template keeps text selectable and in order; use a single-column template for large online application portals.

Can I switch templates after filling in my resume?

Yes — instantly, as often as you like. Your content stays the same; only the design changes.

Can I change colors and paper size?

Pick from 10 accent colors, US Letter or A4, and normal or compact spacing to fit more on one page.
