Who the Quarry template suits
Quarry is a good fit for senior, managers and executives. At a glance: a maximum-density single column with small type, hairline rules and skills in two columns.
- Engineering
- IT
- Senior management
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 Quarry ATS-friendly?
Yes. Quarry 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.
