About the Spaced template

Spaced is a minimal, professional, creative CV template with one column. A centred name over a grey band, ruled sections and row-style entries. It was designed for web and graphic designers, marketing.

Typography: Raleway throughout, at 9.25 pt with 14 mm margins. It has no photo slot, so nothing is left to fill in or remove. Change the accent colour, fonts, spacing and section order in the editor without losing your content.

ATS rating 4/5 (very good). Reads in a sensible order when exported to PDF. Small design touches (such as an upper-case name or a left date column) can occasionally trip stricter parsers. This is M2Toolkit's own rating from reading exported PDFs back as text; it is not a guarantee about any employer's system.

Who it suits

People applying for web and graphic designers, marketing.
Online application forms that parse your CV into fields.
Candidates with two to ten years of experience.

Things to know before you choose it

Very little: this layout is plain by design. Spend your effort on the wording of your experience.

Tips for filling it in

Lead with your most relevant role; the single column reads top to bottom, so order matters.
Aim to keep it to one page unless you have more than ten years of relevant experience.
Start each bullet with what you did, add how, and finish with the result. Only include numbers you can back up.
Run the finished CV through the ATS Resume Checker against the job advert before you send it.

Spaced template FAQ

Is the Spaced template ATS-friendly?

It scores 4 out of 5 in our checks (very good). Fine for most online applications. The score comes from reading exported PDFs back as text, and it doesn't predict any specific employer's software.

What jobs suit the Spaced template?

It was designed for web and graphic designers, marketing. It works for other fields too; the layout, not the job title, decides whether it suits you.

Can I change the colours and fonts?

Yes. Colour, fonts, font size, margins, spacing and section order are all adjustable in the editor, and you can switch to a different template at any time without losing your text.

Can I download it as Word or PDF?

Yes. Download an editable Word (.docx) file, a PDF (through your browser's print dialog, with selectable text) or plain text. Word files use a clean single-column layout so they stay easy to edit, rather than copying this exact design.

Is it free?

Yes. There is no watermark and no sign-up needed to build and download.

Is my CV uploaded anywhere?

No. Everything runs in your browser and is saved on your device only.
