About the Halo template
Halo opens on the initials set large in a blue ring at the top left, the ring laid over the end of a blue band that carries the name in bold white capitals and, beneath it, the job title and email on one small capital line split by a bar. Straight under the head the email, phone, website and profile sit three to a row, each beside its icon in a blue disc. Below them the page splits into a narrow column at the left for the objective and the skills, the skills written as one line divided by bars, and a wide column for the history, the education and the references. Every heading, a section the writer adds included, is a bold capital label over a thick blue rule the width of its column. Each role is one bold capital line reading the employer, the job title, the city and the dates, with the story as a plain paragraph beneath, and each qualification reads the same way. It suits a sales, service or insurance professional who wants a crisp page that puts the name first.
