Template 50 of 59

Single line

The plainest page in the set. A heading is set at body size in a muted uppercase, with no rule under it and almost no space between it and what it introduces, so a section reads as one block with a label on top. The only structure on the page is the type and the gap; nothing is boxed, banded, tinted or reversed.

The numbers

Every figure below is a value in the template registry the builder ships (assets/js/render/templates.js), or a size derived from it by the same multipliers the document stylesheet uses. Body text is not the preset’s nominal point size: it is that figure corrected for the face’s optical size, which is why a 10 pt Helvetica preset renders at 11.73 pt here. Nothing on this page is a measured pass rate or a hiring outcome, because neither exists.

What it is for

Good at

  • Parsed applications: one column, no tables, no images, and a heading alone on its own line.
  • A page size of Letter, which is what most of the mail in that country is.

Bad at

  • A reader who wants the layout to say something about them. It is a document, not a signal.
  • A house style of your own: this preset is the builder’s, not your organisation’s.

ATS profile

Clean

Structurally this is the plain case: one column, no tables, no text boxes, no images, and a section heading standing alone on its own line. Nothing on the published failure lists applies.

What no layout can do is make a parse correct. The ATS guide is blunt about this, and no vendor publishes an accuracy figure, so this page will not invent one.

Still yours to get right

A clean layout with a placeholder employer named “Company 1” is still a document a parser discards. No template can fix a sentence that describes effort instead of effect. Start with the resume basics guide and the one on quantifying impact.

Profile

Section headings set as one quiet line, right on top of their content. Nine years across distribution and light manufacturing, most of it spent on the unglamorous half of the job: getting a forecast, a rota and a supplier to agree with each other.
