European CV Template

The layout common across European applications: a narrow left column holding dates and section titles, and a wide right column carrying the content. It scans quickly because the eye can run down the left edge to find a period.

Who The Euro Clean suits

  • Applications in Europe and the UK
  • Roles requiring a chronological CV
  • Academic and public institutions
  • Anyone with a clean, linear career

What makes this layout different

  • Left column at roughly 25% for dates and headings
  • Right column at 75% for the substance
  • Strong chronological readability
  • Familiar format to European recruiters

How it handles ATS

Two-column layout with a sidebar. Everything exports as selectable text under standard headings, and the main experience column reads top to bottom. If a specific employer is known to use an older parser, the single-column layouts are the safer pick.
