How the Monogram template is laid out
A square badge with your initials, maroon by default, sits beside the name at the top of the page, acting as a personal mark in place of a photo. The badge is left out automatically if no name is entered. Below the header, the content runs in one column in the standard order.
Who should use Monogram?
Freelancers, consultants and creative professionals who want a personal brand mark on their resume and cover letter, without using a photo.
Is Monogram ATS-friendly?
The initials badge is a decorative element. The builder marks Monogram as not ATS-friendly, so prefer a plain single-column template for portal uploads even though the body is one column.
A writing tip for Monogram
Use the same name on the resume as on your email address and profile links, so the initials match what the recruiter sees elsewhere.
