Who the Gable template suits
Gable is a good fit for senior, managers and executives. At a glance: a deep navy right panel with a portrait photo, and a serif name above the career column.
- Executive
- Finance
- Law
- Board roles
Designed around a photo, which is common in much of mainland Europe, the Middle East, Africa and parts of Asia. For the US, Canada, the UK and Ireland, switch the photo off: the layout still looks complete without it.
Is Gable ATS-friendly?
Partly. Gable has two columns. Most current applicant tracking systems read two-column PDFs, but some older portals mix the sidebar text into the main column. Use Gable when you email your CV or hand it over; for large online portals, a single-column template such as Marlow is the safer choice.
Whichever template you pick, download your PDF and run it through our free ATS checker to see the text a tracking system extracts.
