Start for free →Classic Minimal offers a timeless look through a serif typeface and a centred header. It is a calm template for academia, law, publishing, the public sector and research, where traditional expectations apply.
Because the date column lines up neatly, people with a long career, publication list or scholarship record can have their information scanned with ease.
Name and contact details are centred at the top in Georgia. A profile paragraph follows. Education comes before work experience; in each entry the date range stays in a fixed column on the left and the description on the right. Skills and languages are listed in a plain two-column grid. There is no photo slot, and thin horizontal rules sit beneath the section headings.
A single column, an unadorned structure and a date-and-description table let ATS software read this template almost without trouble. A serif typeface is no obstacle for parsers, so it is among the safest choices for full compatibility.
