The Compact template

Two columns that fit more on one page without feeling crowded

Compact moves your skills, education, certifications, and languages into a narrow sidebar, which frees the main column for what recruiters read first: your experience. If you keep getting told your resume runs onto a second page, this layout usually brings it back to one.

  • Main column for experience and projects, sidebar for the rest
  • Reading order stays linear for applicant tracking systems
  • Hairline divider instead of boxes, so the page stays light

Best for: People with many skills or certifications, and anyone fighting the one-page limit.

Free means free: no account, no watermark, no paywall at the download button. Your resume stays in your browser.
