CVLoom

Visual designer resume format

When type is your craft, let type carry the resume: a huge caps name, role set against it, year-led role rows, and skills as a single ruled line. No ornament, one reading order, and every word still selectable — a design resume that survives a parser.

Graphic Designer
Summary

Graphic designer with six years across brand identity, packaging and campaign systems. Twenty-two brand systems shipped, a 60-SKU packaging line on shelf, and a habit of building the template set before the first artwork so a campaign scales without her. Print-ready to the last millimetre and fluent in Figma handoff.

Frequently asked questions

Is CVLoom really free?

Yes — editing, all 283 templates, and PDF download are free, with no watermark and no card. There is no account at all: no signup, no login, nothing to cancel.

Will my PDF have selectable text for ATS systems?

Yes. Exports are generated by a real browser engine, so the PDF has true selectable text, embedded fonts, and clickable links — the things resume parsers need.

Can I switch templates without retyping anything?

Yes — your content and the design are stored separately, so switching templates re-flows the same content instantly and losslessly. Try every one of them.

Can an all-caps resume pass an ATS?

Yes — case is styling, not content; parsers read the letters. What breaks parsing is text inside images, watermark headlines and multi-direction layouts. This format uses none of them.
