One-Page ATS Resume Template — Word, Google Docs & PDF
$1.50
About this template.
The standard resume format punishes graduates. It opens with Work Experience, which is exactly the section you have least of, and leaves coursework, projects and campus leadership crowded at the bottom — if they fit at all. This kit inverts that order. Education and Relevant Coursework sit near the top, Project Experience is treated as real experience with proper achievement bullets, and Leadership & Activities gets genuine space rather than a single closing line.
Two layouts, one for each situation
- No Experience Version — leads with coursework and academic projects, with Leadership & Activities closing the page. For applicants straight out of a degree with no formal role yet.
- Internship Version — adds a dedicated Internship Experience block above Project Experience, so a summer placement reads as professional work rather than an afterthought.
Also included
- Matching cover letter with an identical header, formatted for a graduate applicant
- Pre-written placeholder text throughout, showing the tone and structure hiring managers expect
- Section guide explaining what belongs under coursework, projects and activities
- 30 starter bullet phrases for students with limited work history

Editing it: open the file, replace the placeholder text, and the layout holds. Every section is styled — headings, icons, column widths and the navy ribbon are all preset, so nothing shifts or reflows while you type. Delete a section you don't need and the page rebalances cleanly.
Right for final-year students, recent graduates, career starters, and anyone applying for internships or first professional roles. If you later need an industry-tuned version, this kit is the foundation the Nursing, Tech and Creative kits build on.

How is this file built for applicant tracking systems?
The layout is built without tables, text boxes, or hidden columns in the content a parser reads, and it uses standard section headings such as Experience, Education and Skills. The reading order in the file matches the order you see on the page, so a text extraction returns your history in sequence. Every tracking system parses differently, so we describe how the document is constructed rather than promising a particular outcome.
What software do I need to edit it?
Microsoft Word, or a free Google account. Each pack includes a .docx file and a Google Docs version you copy into your own Drive; most also include an Apple Pages file. All of them export to PDF when you are ready to send. There is nothing to install and no proprietary editor to learn.
How does delivery work?
It is a digital download. Your files unlock as soon as payment clears — they appear in your account immediately and a link is emailed to you at the same time. Nothing ships, and you can re-download the files whenever you need them.
What does the licence cover?
Unlimited personal use. Edit the files as often as you like and tailor a fresh version for every role you apply to, for as long as you want. What you cannot do is resell, redistribute, or share the template files themselves as your own product.
