  • Layout: Divider sidebar · navy.
  • Sidebar on the left: people see it as designed, but some applicant tracking systems read columns out of order, so the app labels it “Design · limited ATS”.

  • No photo slot, which suits most US and UK applications.

Questions about this template

Is a two-column resume bad for applicant tracking systems?

Some tracking systems read columns out of order, which is why the app labels this layout “Design · limited ATS”. For a resume a person reads first (a referral, an email, a printout) it is fine; for online applications, switch to a one-column template. Your content stays the same.

Where do certifications go?

In the sidebar, under Certifications, with the issuing body and year.

Is Harbor good for engineering roles?

Yes. Its structure suits technical and operational roles; rename Projects to Engineering Projects if it fits.
