Portrait resume template
Photo-forward with a deep sidebar. A personal, memorable first impression.
Who the Portrait design suits
Portrait suits candidates who want their face to be part of the introduction: client-facing consultants, sales, hospitality, real estate and coaching, and job seekers in Europe, Latin America, the Middle East and Asia where a photo is expected. The dark sidebar adds weight; turn the photo off where one is discouraged.
How the page is laid out
Portrait has a deep navy sidebar on the left, about a third wide, and is set up to show a large rounded photo once a picture is added. The sidebar carries outlined skill chips in groups, language dots, certifications and awards in pale text. The main column opens with a large Inter name, a sky-blue title and icon contact lines, then sky-blue capital headings with icon tiles.
How it reads to an ATS
Portrait is two columns: parsers read the main column first, then the sidebar. The photo is an image and contributes nothing to parsing. Light text on the navy panel is real text and still counts for keywords. Pick Portrait mainly when a photo is wanted; without one, a dark-sidebar design built without a photo slot gives the same reading order.
