About the Tassel template
Tassel is a two-column resume with no photo, on grey paper ruled into cells. A slate teal bookmark with a notched tail hangs from the top edge of the page at the left, the initials set one over the other in white inside it, and the name runs beside it in large bold capitals over the job title in teal capitals. A thin rule crosses the page under the head and another runs down between a narrow left column and a wide right one, and every section sits in a cell of its own, closed by a thin rule across its column. Every heading, a section the writer adds included, is a bold slate teal label in capitals. The narrow column holds the contact lines behind small dark icons, the skills as bullets, the schooling and any added lists; the wide column holds the profile and the history. A role reads the job title in bold capitals with the dates in italics after it and the employer and city in italics beneath, then the duties as bullets, and a degree reads the same way. It suits a legal assistant, secretary or office professional who wants an orderly, form-like page with one quiet mark of colour.
