Monochrome uses a single column that reads top to bottom, with an uppercase large name and contact details on one line in a left-aligned header.
Typography is Work Sans throughout — a clean sans-serif that stays crisp at small sizes and in screenshots. Sections use section titles over a heavy rule, set in spaced capitals, and each entry shows dates right-aligned on each entry with square bullets.
Skills appear as as a plain list. The default accent is #000000; 4 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
- Any role where the application goes through an applicant tracking system first
- Anyone who wants the content, not the design, to do the talking
- Longer careers that need to fit on one or two pages
Applicant tracking systems
