Why this template for this role?

This template is tuned for the role of Junior UI Designer: technical skills surfaced in the sidebar, impact-driven summary, experiences described with action verbs and metrics.

The Polished design is one of the most loved by recruiters: balanced between originality and readability, restrained colour palette, dense yet airy structure. Compatible with applicant tracking systems (ATS).

CV structure

  • Header with name and job title, immediately identifiable.
  • Sidebar: photo, contact, soft skills, hard skills, knowledge, certifications.
  • Main column: summary, reverse-chronological experiences, education, languages.
  • Soft skills tagged with short, descriptive labels (impact, not jargon).

Tips to adapt this CV

  • Mirror the role’s key skills in the summary — that’s what ATS and recruiters scan first.
  • For each experience, prefer short bullets (1 to 2 lines) with a measurable outcome.
  • Stick to 1 page until you reach 8+ years of experience.
  • Adapt the primary colour to your industry: muted tones (green / blue / black) for finance / corporate, warmer ones for design / product.
