ATS Core templates

Who this template is for

The same single-column approach as Atlas Classic but stripped further back, for applying at volume when you want a recruiter to reach your most recent role in the first few seconds. Good when your experience is strong and needs no framing.

What to check after export

A minimal single-column layout with a blue accent on rules and labels. Compare the recovered text with your original document, especially links and dates, rather than treating decoration as a compatibility test.

The thing people get wrong

Minimal is not the same as short. The layout will hold a full page comfortably, and leaving it half empty reads as a thin application rather than a confident one.

Whichever layout you pick, run the finished export through the ATS resume checker before you apply. The preview shows how the template renders; the checker shows the text this site's extraction recovers from the file you attach, so you can see whether your details survive.
