Who the Measure design suits

Measure suits academics, researchers, quantitative analysts and engineers in fields where a tightly set, justified page is the norm. It reads as rigorous and familiar to anyone who has read a paper. For a design or marketing role it may feel too austere.

How the page is laid out

Justified text in Latin Modern Roman on a tight baseline within 0.6in side margins. The name is centred in capitals, with the role and contacts centred below. Section titles are plain capitals at the size of the body with a hairline rule beneath, so case and rule alone mark them. Entry titles, employers and dates are bold, and everything prints in one dark ink.

How it reads to an ATS

One column of real text with nothing decorative, so it extracts in order. Justified lines stretch the spaces between words, but no word is ever hyphenated, so every term an ATS looks for stays whole on one line, in the PDF exactly as on the page you edit.

Everything on this design can be changed

The picture is a starting point, not a fixed layout. Open the design and change any of this in the editor, with your own words on the page as you do; nothing needs retyping.

• Colours: the accent, heading, text, background and sidebar colours
• Fonts: heading, body and name typefaces, sizes, line height and letter spacing
• Header: photo or monogram on or off, the contact line’s style and whether it sits under, beside or above the name, or in the sidebar
• Section headings: rule, band, side heading and more, for every section at once or one at a time, with an optional icon
• Dates: at the right edge, before the entry, beside the title or in the company line
• Language levels, skill badges and link style
• One or two columns, the sidebar width, section order and which sections appear
• Spacing, margins and page size (A4 or US Letter), and Magic fit to keep it to one, two or three pages
• Switch to any of the other 74 designs at any time; your content comes with you
