About the Lintel template
Lintel is a one-column resume that opens on a thick charcoal bar laid across the top of the text, with the name beneath it in large bold capitals, the address in small grey capitals and the phone and email on one line split by a bar, the email in a link blue. Every section below opens on a thin grey rule the width of the page and a small bold italic capital heading, a section the writer adds included, with its content set a step in. A role reads the employer in bold capitals over one grey italic line of the title, the city and the dates split by bars, with the duties as bullets beneath. A qualification reads the award in bold capitals with the subject after it in plain type, the school on the next line and the city and the year in grey italics. The skills are a bulleted list two across. It suits a tradesperson, a school leaver or anyone who wants a plain page that reads in the order a manager scans it.
