Spotlight resume template
A dark band with a spotlight glow and glowing section dots.
Spotlight literally puts you center stage: a dark header band with a soft radial glow carries your name in white, while section headers in the light body are marked with small glowing dots in your theme color. The contrast between the dramatic header and the clean body makes the page memorable without hurting readability — a strong pick for performers, presenters, and anyone who owns the room.

Will Spotlight pass applicant tracking systems?
The dark band is a solid fill behind real text, so your name parses normally. The body is a standard single column with conventional headings.
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.
