Compass CV Template

A light sidebar with a diagonal accent behind your photo, and dotted timelines for education and experience — a friendly, well-organized layout.

The template is built so applicant tracking systems (ATS) read its text correctly. Fill in your details, pick a colour and font, and download your CV as a PDF. You can switch templates at any time without losing what you have entered.
