Chronicle resume template
A ledger: every entry hands its opening year to a tinted rail down the left, set in tall condensed numerals, while the entry keeps its own real dates in one plain column beside them.
Who the Chronicle design suits
Chronicle suits a career with a clear progression over time: engineers moving into leadership, consultants, project managers and anyone whose story is told in years. It makes tenure easy to judge at a glance. With many overlapping roles or a short history, the year rail has less to say.
How the page is laid out
A compact header: the name in bold Figtree, the role in burnt orange capitals after a short dash, and contacts with icons above a heavy black rule. Below, a tinted rail runs down the left edge, and each entry hands its opening year to it in tall condensed numerals with a small note such as "to now". Headings are orange capitals followed by a short orange stroke.
How it reads to an ATS
The rail years are decoration and are not part of the extracted text; each entry keeps its full dates as real text at the right of its title, so a parser still reads complete start and end dates. The body itself is a single column and comes out in order.
