Frequently asked questions
Is the Creative Accent template ATS-friendly?
Yes. CV Makes templates export a text-based PDF with standard section headings that applicant tracking systems can read. If you apply through an older ATS, a single-column design is the most conservative choice.
Can I add a photo to the Creative Accent template?
Yes, the photo is optional. Add one if photos are expected in your country, for example in Germany or Turkey, and leave it out for applications in the US, UK or Canada.
Can I switch to another template later?
Yes. Your content stays in place when you change the template in the editor, so you can compare designs with your own details before downloading the PDF.
