Who the Pebble template suits

Pebble is a good fit for students, graduates and first jobs. At a glance: a centred header with a round photo, highlighted section headings, education first and skill pills.

  • Retail
  • Hospitality
  • Internships
  • Graduate jobs

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 Pebble ATS-friendly?

Yes. Pebble 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.
