Who this template is for
Bring this template out when you are going for a high-visibility role and the first glance has to land. Sales, sales leadership, communications, sports: fields where you are expected to know how to sell yourself, and where a timid resume works against you. It works especially well when you have a name to make memorable, a fiercely contested opening, or a networking meeting where the resume will sit on a table among others. For an institutional application, prefer the corporate.
How the layout is built
Your name takes the top of the page in very heavy Montserrat, at a size you will not find on any other template in the catalogue. The target role follows as a counterpoint, then a row of contact details on a single line. Sections are numbered 01, 02, 03, with the number part of the heading itself and a red rule running the full width of the page. Experience entries keep a legible structure: role on the left and dates on the right, company and location as a subtitle, achievements as short bullets.
With or without a photo
No photo: the name already plays the portrait’s role and occupies the space it would have taken. Adding a face under type of that size would produce an overloaded header. For an assertive resume with a photo, Modern with a vivid accent is the closest alternative.
ATS readability
The size of the name is only a typographic attribute: a parser reads a line of text, not a logo. The section numbers here sit inside the heading, unlike the creative template where they are separate; in practice tools recognise “01 Experience” as the Experience section, but if the posting runs through a very strict submission form, the classic stays more predictable.
PDF and Word export
In PDF the full-width red and the oversized type come out exactly as on screen, and black-and-white printing turns the red into a still-legible dark grey. In DOCX the oversized type is preserved but may wrap onto two lines if your name is long; the full-width rules become paragraph borders, rendered slightly thinner.

If this one is not quite right, these three play in the same register.
All resume templates
Creative
Numbered sections, rounded Nunito shapes and a confident purple holding the page together. It stands out of the pile without giving up legibility.
Modern
A two-column header with a photo, a midnight-blue accent and Raleway throughout. Contemporary without being loud.
Executive
A dark sidebar gathers the photo, contact details and skills while the main column lays out achievements. EB Garamond headings set the measured tone expected at this level.
