Chronicle resume template
Chronicle draws a single timeline rail through your resume. Dates move into the left margin, each role is a node on the rail, and every section starts with a round icon marker. Your name is set large in DM Serif Display, with your contact details stacked on the right.

Is the Chronicle template ATS-friendly?
One reading column, but dates sit in a separate margin, which some applicant tracking systems read in a different order. Headings and text are real text. For strict job portals, ATS Plain is safer.
Bolder layouts like this can be misread by some applicant tracking systems. If you apply through a job portal, switch to ATS Plain or another single-column layout; your content moves over unchanged.
Accent colors
Starts in Plum. Pick any of these in the editor's Design panel, or enter your own color.
