ATS friendly CV template

In the UK and many other countries a CV is what Americans call a resume. Either way, if you apply through an online portal, software probably reads it first. This template keeps your CV simple enough for that software and clear enough for the person reading next.

CV or resume, what is the difference?

In the US a CV usually means a longer academic record. Elsewhere it is the standard job document. Our template works for both: just rename the file and adjust the length.

What is inside

Personal details in the body, a short profile, Work Experience, Education, Skills and optional Certifications or Languages. One column, common fonts, no tables.

UK CV tips that also help with ATS

• Skip the photo, date of birth and marital status
• Use "Work Experience" rather than a creative heading
• Two pages is normal for experienced candidates
