Templates / Technology & Engineering
Sidebar layout holding standards, software and certifications, leaving the main column for commissioning work. For electrical engineers.
Example text — you replace it with yours in the builder.
Suits technology & engineering roles where the CV is read by a person — a referral, a direct email, or a smaller company without an automated pipeline.
The two-column layout reads well to a human but interleaves when flattened to plain text, so older parsers can scramble it. Use it when you are sending the CV directly to a person, and keep a single-column version for portal applications.
Accent colour, sidebar bg, font body, font heading, spacing, scale, line, section order, which sections appear, page size (A4 or Letter), and every word of the text. Nothing here is locked behind a payment.
Electrical engineering recruiters look for the systems you have designed, installed or commissioned, and the standards you work to. Circuit keeps standards, software and certifications in the sidebar and gives the main column to commissioning work.
Figures in [brackets] are placeholders. Use your own, and only ones you could explain in an interview.
