How to choose a resume template in 2026
The right resume template gets your application past the Applicant Tracking System (ATS) and into the hands of a human recruiter. Most of the templates you'll find on free generators are decorative — they look pretty but break the moment they hit Workday, Greenhouse, or Lever. Every template on this page has been parsed against the top six ATS systems and verified to score 95%+ on field extraction.
For tech roles
Use the Tech Stack Card template. It puts your skills grid above the fold and uses a monospace aesthetic that resonates with engineering managers. Pair it with the AI Skills Suggester so Claude pulls the most relevant frameworks for your target role.
For senior leadership
The Executive Dark template uses serif headers and a centred layout that conveys gravitas without slipping into the cliché "PowerPoint CV" look. The summary section auto-generates a strategic narrative using your last three roles when you click the AI button.
For ATS-first applications
When you're applying through a portal that requires uploading a parsed PDF, use ATS Classic. It's a single-column, single-font layout designed to be read by machines first and humans second. We've tested it against Workday, Greenhouse, Lever, iCIMS, Taleo, and SmartRecruiters.
Frequently asked questions
Are these resume templates ATS-friendly?+
Yes — every template is parsed cleanly by Workday, Greenhouse, Lever, iCIMS, and Taleo. We tested all 8 against the top ATS systems used by Fortune 500 companies before launching.
Are the templates really free?+
Three templates (Modern Minimal, ATS Classic, Academic, Healthcare) are completely free on the Free plan. The remaining premium templates (Executive Dark, Creative Side-Panel, Tech Stack Card, Startup Bold) are included in the £19/month Pro plan.
Can I edit the template with AI?+
Yes. Every template has a live editor where Claude Sonnet 4 generates your professional summary, suggests skills, and writes achievement-focused bullet points based on your experience.
Can I download my resume as a PDF?+
Yes. PDF export is included on all paid plans. The Pro plan includes unlimited PDF exports, ATS scoring, and tailored cover letter generation.
Which template should I use?+
For most corporate roles use Modern Minimal or ATS Classic. For senior leadership pick Executive Dark. Software engineers prefer Tech Stack Card. Designers and creatives go with Creative Side-Panel. Healthcare workers should use Healthcare. Researchers and academics should use Academic.
