How the Groundwork template is laid out
The name is printed in the accent colour, green by default. Each section heading sits on a pale tinted bar with a thicker accent border on its left. Entries are indented under the heading and the dates are bold, so each role reads as a distinct block.
Who should use Groundwork?
Operations, supply chain, field sales and project coordination roles, and candidates with several roles at one employer who need each block to stand apart.
Is Groundwork ATS-friendly?
Tinted bars sit behind heading text only, and the heading text is standard. The layout is chronological in one column and marked ATS-friendly.
A writing tip for Groundwork
If you held several titles at one company, list the company once and each title as its own dated line below it.
