Portrait — Resume template with photo

A sage header panel centres a round photo above your name, title and contact line. The page then splits: summary and experience on the left, education, a bulleted skills list, languages and interests on the right. Poppins headings with Roboto body text.

What it looks like

  • Centred round photo or initials in a tinted header panel
  • Bulleted skills list in the right column
  • Contact details in one row under the name

Is the Portrait template ATS-friendly?

The PDF keeps every word as real, selectable text, but the side column is a second column: some older applicant tracking systems read two-column pages less reliably than one. If you are applying through a strict online portal, a one-column template such as Ledger or Swiss is the safer choice. The photo is optional. Leave it empty for UK, US and Canadian applications, where recruiters generally expect a CV without one.
