About the Cobalt template
A cobalt hexagonal crest beside the name in serif, section headings underlined across their own column, and a body of two columns with the keyword rail on the left. Its headings are set in the template’s own serif; the typeface you choose sets everything else.
What makes it ATS-safe
- Two columns, written in the order they are read — extracted text runs summary, skills and education, then the work history
- No tables, images, or icon fonts carrying meaning
- Real selectable text, standard system typefaces
- No printed band — every mark is foreground ink, so it prints complete with background graphics off
- Reverse-chronological sections with YYYY-MM dates
What this example does well
- Every bullet leads with a result and a number, not a duty. →
- Its skills use the words postings screen on. →
- One clean layout that a screening system reads in order. →
