Charcoal Split resume template
Charcoal Split is a free two-column resume template with a black accent: a photo right of the name and Merriweather headings with Lato text. Older applicant tracking systems may read its two columns out of order, so email it to a person rather than a job portal. Download PDF and Word free, with no signup or watermark.
Two ruled columns under a full-width header, a right-hand photo, spaced capital headings and Merriweather with Lato; the photo-led style used by event planners and nurses.

Is the Charcoal Split template ATS-friendly?
Not always. Some older applicant tracking systems read two columns out of order, so pick a single-column design for large company portals and use a two-column one when a person reads your resume first.
Word: The Word file is made for editing: two-column designs can shift slightly once you change text in Word, so send the PDF unless an employer asks for Word.
