About the Spruce template
Spruce is a one-column resume on a white page with a dark slate-teal name set large in a serif and closed with a full stop, the address, phone and email as short plain lines beneath it, and a square photo in the top right corner laid over an outline of the same size set down and to the left, as if a second frame sat behind it. Every heading, a section the writer adds included, is the label in the same serif followed by a thin rule running out to the right margin. The profile is one or two plain paragraphs. The roles sit side by side in two columns under one heading, each with the job title over a small grey line carrying the employer and the dates, then its duties as a dashed list. The skills read as short dashed lines three across, and the degrees close the page two across, the first ranged left and the second ranged right, the school in bold over the award and the years. It suits a nurse, a clinician or anyone whose two most recent posts tell the story together.
