Who the Campus template suits

Campus is a good fit for students, graduates and first jobs. At a glance: a single column with an accent line at the top, square-bullet headings, education first and skill tags.

  • Graduate schemes
  • Internships
  • Part-time jobs

Built without a photo, which suits the US, Canada, the UK and Ireland, where photos are usually left off. If an employer expects one, you can add a photo in the builder.

Is Campus ATS-friendly?

Yes. Campus keeps your content in one text column with standard section headings and no tables, so applicant tracking systems read it in order.

Whichever template you pick, download your PDF and run it through our free ATS checker to see the text a tracking system extracts.
