About the Moss template
Moss runs a deep green column down the right third of a white page, the full height of every page. Over the white side a pale green band opens the page with the name in large bold deep green and the job title beneath it in a lighter green, and the profile follows under the band with no heading, in a semibold green paragraph. Every heading on the white side, a section the writer adds included, is its label in bold deep green on a pale green band that runs from the page edge to the column, the label in line with the text beneath. A role reads the employer and city in bold with the dates against the right edge, the title in bold beneath, then round bullets, and a degree reads the award with its dates against the right edge over the school and city. All the text on the white side is one deep green. The green column opens on a round photo, then the address, the phone and the email as small plain lines, then the key skills as plain lines under a pale green heading. It suits a technician, a tradesperson or anyone in a hands-on role who wants a fresh, clearly ordered page with a photo.
