Bold resume template

It suits creative and commercial roles where confidence is part of the job: brand and graphic designers, art directors, creative producers, content leads, agency and event staff. Use it when a person sees it first, such as an email to a studio or a referral.

The orange block fills about two thirds of the header width and sets your name at roughly three times body size. The dark panel starts at the very top of the page and stacks an optional round photo above contact lines. Section titles are bold, in sentence case; dates and employers appear in orange.

• Extra-large, heavy name on a solid burnt-orange block
• Near-black panel for photo and contact details
• Thick accent bar beside every section title

Bold is visual-first, and the editor's check for applicant tracking systems (ATS) flags it as such. The text is real, but your email and phone sit apart in a dark block and the body is split in two, so an ATS may misplace them. For large portals, switch to a single-column template; your content stays.

• The dark panel is narrow, so long emails and URLs wrap; a short custom LinkedIn URL keeps lines tidy.
• Let the header do the shouting: three bullets per role at most keep the page light.
