Elegant Centered Resume Template
A centered header and summary above a narrow, generously spaced body. The narrow measure slows reading down slightly, which suits roles where how you present is part of the assessment.
Who The Centered Elegant suits
- Fashion and luxury brands
- Public relations and events
- C-suite and board applications
- Roles where presentation is judged
What makes this layout different
- Centered name, contact details, and summary
- Narrow body measure with wide outer margins
- Restrained, elegant typography
- Prints beautifully in black and white
How it handles ATS
Single-column top-to-bottom flow, which is the structure applicant tracking systems parse most reliably. Standard section headings, real selectable text, no text trapped in images.
