Frequently asked questions
Are creative templates ATS-friendly?
Most creative templates use a sidebar or banner header that may not parse as cleanly as a single-column layout. If you are applying to a company that uses ATS aggressively, consider using the ATS-Friendly category or re-exporting from a single-column template.
Should I include a photo on a creative resume?
Photo inclusion is region-dependent. It is common in many European and Asian markets but generally discouraged in the US, UK and Canada due to anti-discrimination conventions. When in doubt, leave it off.
Where should project work go?
Put paid work experience in the experience section and personal, freelance or side-project work in a Projects section. For design roles this is often the most important section.
