Who it suits

Applications in Sweden, Denmark, Norway, the Netherlands, and anyone who likes a quiet, minimal CV.

Where it works best

You can use it anywhere, but it’s a particularly good fit for CVs aimed at:

If you pick a country where photos are discouraged, such as the United States or the United Kingdom, the editor leaves the photo out and shows your initials instead.

  2. Fill in the fields. The preview updates as you type.
