Compass resume template
A deep-navy sidebar with dot-rated skills.
Compass sets a deep-navy sidebar against a bright main column: contact, dot-rated skills, and custom sections on the left in white and blue-tinted type; your name and experience story on the right. The navy gives the page direction and gravity — a steady, navigational feel for careers with clear trajectories.

Will Compass pass applicant tracking systems?
Navy sidebar is a background fill behind real text. Keep employers and titles in the main column; modern parsers handle the two-column flow.
Every Cvyon template exports through your browser's print-to-PDF, so the text layer stays selectable and searchable — the thing parsers actually read. After downloading, run your resume through our free ATS grader to confirm it scores well before you apply.
