Layout
Split header

Very good
Photo
No photo

Although the page divides into several areas, the sections are built with flex rather than tables and the text layer stays linear, so common parsers take the information in the right order.

There is no photo area; the header stays pure text, so parsers read the name and contact lines without breaking them apart.

Name left, contact right; body runs in a single column. Name and title align left, contact details right, the two separated from the body by a fine rule. Using the header horizontally leaves more of the page for the body.

How the Engineering Split template is built

Knowing how information sits on the page before you pick a template directly affects how your application gets read.

Split header

Name and title align left, contact details right, the two separated from the body by a fine rule. Using the header horizontally leaves more of the page for the body.

Typography

Body and headings share one sans-serif family, reading equally cleanly on screen and in print.

Section headings

A fine rule sits under each section heading, making the boundaries clear without using colour.

Use of colour

Colour appears only in fine rules and headings; the rest of the page stays white.

Density

Line spacing and section gaps are tight, built to hold a history with many roles on a single page.

How skills are presented

Skills are listed on one line separated by dots. It is the safest form for keyword matching.

When not to choose this template

  • Applications where a visual portfolio is expected in the document itself
  • Applications where the employer mandates its own template
  • Resumes with little content that would otherwise look empty

You can compare the alternatives side by side in the template comparison table.

Frequently asked questions

About the Engineering Split template

Is the Engineering Split template ATS-friendly?

ATS compatibility for this template is rated “very good”. Although the page divides into several areas, the sections are built with flex rather than tables and the text layer stays linear, so common parsers take the information in the right order.

Does the Engineering Split template include a photo?

There is no photo area; the header stays pure text, so parsers read the name and contact lines without breaking them apart. If you are applying to employers who expect a photo, pick one of the templates that carries it as part of the design.

Can I change template later?

Yes. The template is only a presentation layer; what you write is stored separately and carries over intact when you switch.

Will the PDF match this preview?

Yes. The preview and the PDF come from the same component: A4 (210×297 mm), accented characters and a selectable text layer are all preserved.

Can I change the colour in the Engineering Split template?

Yes. The accent colour control in the editor applies to this template too — pick any of the six presets.
