About the Strata template
Strata is a one-column resume with a photo, built from full-width bands that run edge to edge and alternate grey and white down the page. A rounded square photo sits at the top left beside the name in blue, with the contact details on one wrapping line of bold labels and their values. Each section, a section you add included, is a band of its own with a narrow column at the left holding the section icon on a small blue square over a bold label, and the content ranged beside it. A role reads the title in bold over the employer, with the dates over the city in a column at the right, then bullet points, and a degree reads the same way with its GPA beneath. Skills and languages are thin blue bars ending in a dark dot, two to a row, each under its own heading and band, and interests are blue icons over their names. It suits sales, insurance and client-facing roles where a tidy, well-ordered page helps a reader find each section at a glance.
