CV templates
Five looks, built for a short CV.
Most CV templates are designed around a page full of jobs and fall apart with two. These five are designed the other way round: each one looks finished with one job and a handful of strengths, and grows tidily when there's more. Standard headings, real text, a reading order that scanning software follows — and a proper PDF that is exactly what you saw on screen.

Why these five?
Three questions — where you're at, what kind of work, what you've got to put on it — pick a starting design. A first CV gets room to breathe; four jobs get Compact so they fit on one page. You can switch to any of the five afterwards.
What about scanning software?
Every design is real text with standard headings in a logical order — even Sidebar reads main column first underneath. No photos, no skill bars, no icons standing in for words.
What can I change?
Six accent colours, two font pairings per design, and whether education goes above your jobs. Enough to make it yours; not enough to break it.
Is the PDF what I see?
Yes, exactly. The download is the same sheet as the preview, printed by a real browser on our server — fonts and all. What you see is what a manager opens.
Pick one and see it with your own details
Building, previewing and downloading are free — the CV is yours. A plan is only for sending applications through Doorstep.
