Template 09 of 59

Technical

For engineering and data roles, and the only preset that pairs a colour accent with a rule under every heading. A wide measure and engineering density, with a green that reads as a system rather than a brand.

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.

Builder id

Sheet
Letter, 8.5 × 11 in
Margins
0.55 in on all four sides
Body
11.20 pt, 1.34 line height
Face
Helvetica, web-safe. Corrected for optical size: 10.5 pt of Helvetica reads like 10.5 pt of the system face.
Line length
80 characters, about 40 em, capped and centred
Name
21.84 pt
Section headings
Title case, 13.98 pt, over a 1.08 pt rule
Section gap
12 pt. Entry gap 6 pt.
Bullets
En dash, 1.79 pt between them
Columns
One. No column split, and no risk of a misread reading order.
Arrangement
The plain stack. Nothing arranged, nothing drawn.
Photo
None.
Accent
#065f46, changeable in Design
Colour
Colour allowed. A mono printer greys the accent; the rules still carry the structure.

What it is for

Good at

  • Engineering and data roles, where the reader wants the stack, the scale and the numbers in that order.
  • A culture that reads structure as competence. The rules say organised without saying anything.
  • A long project list, because dash bullets stay legible where a filled disc turns to mud.
  • Colour printing, which is the one thing this preset is explicitly not print-safe about. A mono printer greys the green and the rest of the page still holds.

Bad at

  • Screens with aggressive colour correction or a colour-blind profile set to greyscale. The accent is the only colour signal.
  • Paper. It is deliberately not print-safe, because a print-safe preset replaces the accent with near-black and the accent control would then do nothing.
  • Non-technical readers, who read a hairline under every heading as a report rather than a resume.
  • Very short careers. A dense page with four entries on it looks like there is nothing else to say.

ATS profile

Clean

One column, no tables, no text boxes, no images, and a section heading standing alone above a rule. Nothing on the published failure list applies.

The green is ink, not signal. A text extractor reads a heading and a paragraph under it; the colour never enters the text layer at all.

It is the one original preset explicitly not print-safe, and the reason is a design one rather than a parsing one. Print-safe is comparable density in monochrome.

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.
