Typographic Resume Template
The surname is set very large across the top, with right-aligned ruled section labels and a narrow aside carrying the bio, skills and credentials beside a wide experience column. It behaves like a magazine spread.

When to use it
Use this when being remembered matters and the reader is a human rather than a parser. It is a deliberate statement, so it suits creative and editorial contexts more than corporate screening.
- Editorial, publishing and journalism
- Creative direction and art direction
- Applications going straight to a person
- Anyone who wants to be remembered

Frequently asked questions
Is the Typographic resume template ATS-friendly?
Typographic is a two-column design that reads cleanly, but it is not in our ATS-friendly set. If your application goes through a large employer's portal or a recruitment agency, pick one of the ATS-friendly designs instead and keep this one for direct approaches.
Is the Typographic template free?
Typographic is a Pro design, but you can still build your resume in it for free: drop in the resume you already have on this page and we will render it in Typographic so you can see the result before deciding anything.
What font does the Typographic template use?
Typographic is set in EB Garamond, in a two-column layout with balanced spacing. You can change the typeface, text size, spacing and accent colour after your CV is created.
Are these resume templates free?
Yes. You can fill in a template, preview it and download a PDF without paying. A JobSprout account is free, and some of the designs are marked Pro, which unlocks with a subscription. There is always a free design available in every style.
Can I edit a resume template after I download it?
Yes. Your CV stays in your account, so you can change the content, switch to a different design, adjust the colour, font size and spacing, and download a fresh PDF whenever you need one. Switching design never loses your content, because the content and the layout are stored separately.
Will these templates pass an ATS?
The designs marked ATS-friendly are built for it: no colour fills behind text, a clean reading order and standard section headings. Any CV you build can also be checked against a real parser with our free ATS resume checker, which shows you exactly what a screening system extracts.
What file format do I get?
A print-quality PDF, which is what nearly every employer and application portal asks for. The PDF keeps a real text layer rather than being an image, so screening software can read it and so can a screen reader.
Should I put a photo on my resume?
In the UK, Ireland, the US, Canada and Australia, no. Employers there usually prefer no photo, and some screening processes strip them to reduce bias. In much of continental Europe and parts of Asia a photo is still conventional. Check the norm where you are applying, and leave it off if you are unsure.
How long should my resume be?
One page if you have under roughly ten years of relevant experience, and always for students and graduates. Two pages are normal for senior, academic or highly technical roles. An academic CV is the exception and runs as long as your publication and funding record requires.
