Creative uses two columns with a sidebar on the left, with an uppercase large name in the accent color and contact details stacked in a left-aligned header. The sidebar takes about 34% of the width and holds skills, languages, interests and certifications.
Typography is Montserrat for the name and headings with Nunito Sans for the text — a clean sans-serif that stays crisp at small sizes and in screenshots. Sections use plain section titles with no rules, set in spaced capitals, and each entry shows dates on their own line under each title with round bullets.
Skills appear as as small pills. The default accent is #4C1D95; 6 presets are one click away and any color can be typed in, and fonts, spacing and margins are adjustable after you pick it.
Best for
- Roles with a long list of tools, languages or certifications that deserve their own column
- Design, marketing and media roles where a distinctive first impression helps
- Longer careers that need to fit on one or two pages
Applicant tracking systems
The PDF contains real, selectable text in reading order, so parsers can read it; a few older applicant tracking systems merge columns, so for a strict ATS portal a single-column design is the safest choice.
