Resume Template

Pick this one if you have held a few jobs and want them on a single page without fuss. You fill in a name line, then Summary, Experience, Skills and Education. The newest job gets four bullet lines, the next gets three and the oldest gets one, so your space follows your strongest proof. Each date sits next to its employer, because in an earlier build a text reader pushed a right-hand date column below the bullets. Square-bracket prompts, 39 of them, tell you what to type, such as a second result with something faster, cheaper or more accurate. A made-up operations coordinator fills the sample PDF. You get Letter and A4 .docx files. No applicant tracking system was tested.

Compatibility and file formats

A .docx file with ordinary text, heading styles and one column. No tables, text boxes, macros or add-ins. Scripts opened it in LibreOffice 26.8 and read the text with docx2txt, macOS textutil and, after a PDF export, pdftotext. With its font swapped for Liberation Sans or Liberation Serif in LibreOffice, each document stayed on one page. A script also opened this file in Microsoft Word for Mac 16.114.3 and exported a PDF: it stayed on one page and the words came out in the same order as the file. Word used Calibri, Arial or Noto depending on the file and what it could fetch, and no fonts were installed for the test. That test did not type longer text. Google Docs and Pages have not been tried, and no ATS was tested.

Questions

What if I have ten years of work?

Keep the last three jobs here. Delete the oldest one if it has nothing to do with the job you want.

It ran onto a second page. What do I cut?

Shorten the oldest job first, then cut the Skills lines to two.
