About the Datum template
Datum is the labelled one-column resume, set in one ink on a white page with no photo: every section is a small uppercase label washed in a faint tint of the accent and set in the left margin, with its body ranged beside it and a thin rule running the full width of the page between one section and the next. The head is a single row with the name in bold on the left and the job title on the right inside the same wash the labels sit in, and contact follows as the first labelled section, two fields to a row, each written as Phone or Email with a colon before the value. A role opens on the title and its dates in one bold line divided by a bar, with the employer in a lighter line beneath and then its bullets; a degree reads the same way, the school and its years over the award. A section the writer adds takes the same margin label, and its paragraphs are set two abreast, so a list of dated certificates reads as a grid. It suits an engineer, an analyst or anyone who wants the page read down its margin with nothing decorative in the way.
