Photo, not for US ATSOne column, photo

European resume template

European follows the look many EU and Turkish employers expect: a passport-style photo on the right of the header, bold section labels set in white on a filled accent bar, and IBM Plex Sans throughout. It pairs well with the A4 page size, which you can set in the editor.

Is the European template ATS-friendly?

Not recommended for US applicant tracking systems or US employers. The photo is an image and the section labels are white text on a filled bar; the text is still real and in one column.

Not for US applicant tracking systems. If you apply through a job portal in the US, switch to ATS Plain or another layout without a photo.

European template questions

Is this an official Europass CV?

No. It follows a similar structure and look, but it is not generated by the Europass service. If a posting requires the official Europass format, use their tool.

Should I use A4 or Letter?

Use A4 for Europe and Turkey. You can switch the page size in the editor, and the PDF follows it.
