About the Slab template
Slab is a one-column resume in a slab serif that opens on a band of the accent across the top of the page, with a round portrait at its left, the name set on a slightly deeper wash of the same colour as if highlighted, the job title beneath and the contact details in two columns beside small icons. Every section, one the writer adds included, sits under the same heading: its title centred in bold on a band of the accent the full width of the page. A role reads down two columns, the dates over the city in a narrow left column and the employer in bold over the role in the wide one, with the bullets aligned under the employer; a degree reads the same way, the years over the city beside the award in bold over the school. Skills run three to a row behind small dots, and the languages sit two to a row with a row of dots ranged against the right of each cell. It suits a sales, insurance or account manager who wants a page that reads as a clean table from the first glance.
