About these templates
Each CV uses one column, standard headings and real text, so it reads well for a person and for the software many employers use to sort applications. Placeholder text in [brackets] tells you what to write.
Pick the version closest to your job. They share the same layout, so you can also start from the ATS template and change the headings.
