AI Enhancement Tips For This Template
💡 Content Enhancement
Two column resumes benefit most from AI in the skills sidebar — use enhancement to ensure your skills are industry-standard terminology that matches ATS keyword databases.
📊 ATS Score Tip
Our two-column template uses a single-column reading order in the underlying HTML so ATS parsers read it correctly from top to bottom, not left to right.
