About the Graphite template
Graphite opens with a charcoal band across the top of the page that carries a round photo on the left and the name and job title in white beside it. The band drops a slanted wedge into a cream sidebar of contact details, education and skills, and the summary, work experience and any extra sections run down the white column on the right.
