Who the Maple template suits

Maple is a good fit for any career stage. At a glance: a classic left-aligned name, serif capital headings over full-width rules and stacked entries.

  • Teaching
  • Public sector
  • Healthcare
  • Charity

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 Maple ATS-friendly?

Yes. Maple 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.
