When plainest is best
Applications through portals that mangle formatting, quick applications where the content is already strong, or any time you'd rather not think about design. The structure is the standard one used in the Basic Resume and One Column Resume, with even less styling. If you'd like a little more polish without complexity, the Simple One Page Resume and Clean Resume are the next step up.
Format
As parser-safe as a resume gets; part of the simple resume templates and effectively an ATS template. Spend the time you save on content, using the what to delete checklist.
