What this skin actually changes, compared with the plain document every template starts from.
Why it is built that wayClarity is the only template here where your accent colour has essentially nowhere to appear — headings, rules and chips are all resolved in neutrals. Hierarchy is built purely from size, weight and the 52/56px page.
Best for: Applicants whose achievements need no help from the layout. It is one of the 40 ATS-safe templates here — single column, no tables and no text boxes — so it is a safe default when the application goes through an employer's online portal.
| Layout | Single column — one of the 55 single-column templates here |
|---|---|
| ATS-safe | Yes — one of 40 out of 72 |
| Headshot slot | No |
| Default accent | #111827 — changeable to any of the 8 palette colours |
| Style tags | Simple (16 templates), Modern (32 templates) |
| Exports | PDF, Word (.docx) and JPG — all free and unwatermarked |
Choosing a colour on this template changes almost nothing, so if colour matters to you, Slate keeps a similar restraint and still uses it. And with no rules at all, a very long resume loses its landmarks.
Once the wording is done, run the finished document through our free ATS resume checker to score it against the job description you are targeting, or read the resume writing guides for section-by-section help.
