About the Hornet template
Hornet is a two-column resume with a photo, set on a near-black page. A yellow band runs the full width of the head, its lower edge cut on a shallow slant that drops toward the right, and a thin strip on the same slant closes the foot of the last page. The name sits on the band in heavy black squared capitals, with the city, phone, email and links on one wrapping line beneath it, each behind a thin outline icon, and a square photo stands at the band's right margin. Every heading, a section the writer adds included, is a grey outline icon beside bold yellow capitals. The left column holds the objective and the work history, each role giving the title in bold over the employer and a small line with the dates behind a calendar and the city behind a pin. The right column leads each degree with its subject, then lists the skills as bold names beside thick yellow bars that run on as a hairline, and the languages under a small dashed label with their levels in yellow words. It suits developers and technical specialists who want a confident page with a clear reading order.
