Sprinkle CV Template — Free Download
Sprinkle tops the page with a cheerful strip of confetti in three shades of your colour, then gets straight down to business with education first and tight spacing that keeps a short CV on one page. Nothing sits on the confetti, so the page stays easy to read and to scan by software. Made for students, interns and anyone writing a first CV.

Who the Sprinkle template suits
Sprinkle is a good fit for students, graduates and first jobs. At a glance: a strip of teal confetti dots, rings, bars and squiggles across the top of the page above a bold name, with education first in a compact single column.
- Students
- Graduate jobs
- 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 Sprinkle ATS-friendly?
Yes. Sprinkle keeps your content in one text column with standard section headings and no tables, so applicant tracking systems read it in order. Skill ratings are drawn shapes, but the skill names next to them are plain text.
Whichever template you pick, download your PDF and run it through our free ATS checker to see the text a tracking system extracts.
