OpEd resume template

An opinion-page voice for your career.

OpEd gives your resume the authority of a newspaper opinion page: your job title opens as a tracked-out theme-colored kicker, your name lands like a 5xl headline, and a heavy four-pixel rule slams the masthead shut. Section heads are bold serif with double borders, and your summary reads as the lede paragraph. It is for professionals with a point of view — and the record to back it.

Will OpEd pass applicant tracking systems?

Single column, real text, standard headings — parsing is clean. The heavy rules are CSS borders, not images.

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.
