Rucksack resume template
A dense 60/40 pack — experience left, credentials right.
Rucksack packs a lot into a little: a spanning header, then a 60% left column carrying your summary and experience beside a 40% right column densely stacked with skills, education, and certifications. Everything runs compact with tight spacing and small theme-colored heads. It is the template for careers with serious volume — years of roles, stacks of skills, shelves of credentials — all carried comfortably.

Will Rucksack pass applicant tracking systems?
Two-column layouts can challenge older parsers — keep job titles and employers in the left column. All text is real and selectable.
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.
