Garamond resume template
The timeless Garamond résumé recruiters trust — a bold old-style serif name, clean ruled sections, impeccable single-column structure. Classic and ATS-perfect.
Who the Garamond design suits
Garamond suits lawyers, academics, editors, finance professionals and senior managers who want a traditional, bookish page with a little more presence than a plain format. Its large old-style name and generous size read well on paper for interview panels.
How the page is laid out
One column in EB Garamond at a slightly larger text size. A bold left-aligned name sits over a plain title and a dotted contact line. Headings are bold tracked uppercase with a small icon badge and a full-width black rule. Skills print inline by category, and dates align right. The palette is black and grey, with no accent colour.
How it reads to an ATS
A single column of selectable serif text read top to bottom. The icon badges beside headings are drawings and do not enter the extracted text. Contacts are plain strings. The larger type means a long history may need two pages, which most parsers handle without trouble.
Best for: Single column · Classic · Elegant. Free to use, exports selectable text a résumé parser can read, and edits entirely in your browser — no account and no upload.
