About the Apricot template
Apricot is a two-column resume with a pale grey column down the left of a white page. The column opens on the first name in heavy dark type over the surname in orange, then the photograph the full width of the column, then the contact details as bold labels over their values, the languages as a name and its CEFR code, and the hobbies as a short bulleted list. The wide column reads the summary, the skills two abreast, the history, the degree and the certificates, every heading in heavy title-case type over a thin dark rule, a section the writer adds included. A role reads as its title in bold with the dates after a dash, then the employer in bold and the city beside it, then bullets; a degree as the award with its field in bold and the year after it, then the school in bold and the city. It suits a web developer, a designer or anyone whose page should read as clean and structured with one warm colour on it.
