Who this template is for
Professional Sidebar combines a dark navy left panel with a clean white main column. Contact details, skills and languages sit in the sidebar; summary, experience and education get the full width on the right. The restrained palette keeps it suitable for conservative industries while still looking modern — a good fit for project managers, analysts and technical specialists.

Frequently asked questions
Is the Professional Sidebar 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 Professional Sidebar 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.
