About the Quad template
Quad is the one-column resume a careers office hands out, set on a white page with no photo: the name centred in bold spaced capitals over a single line of contact details divided by accent dots, a hairline of the accent under them, and every heading a bold spaced uppercase label with no rule. Each entry is a pair of ranged rows, the school or employer on the left with the city against the right margin, then the degree or role in bold with the dates against the right margin, then honours or bullets, and a section the writer adds sets its rows the same way. Skills run as one line of names divided by bars. It suits a student or a first-job applicant who wants a page that reads down both margins and prints on anything.
