What’s inside

The Graduate One-Page Resume Template is made for your first job search. Education comes first, followed by internships, projects and leadership, so a short work history still looks strong. A subtle two-tone sidebar holds your skills, certifications, languages, awards and interests, while slate-blue Poppins headings keep it fresh and modern. The download includes:

One-page resume as an editable Word document (.docx) in US Letter
The same resume as an editable .docx in A4
PDF previews in both sizes
A README with font links, editing tips and the license terms

It is pre-filled with realistic sample content for a fictional marketing graduate, “Taylor Kim”, showing how coursework, a capstone, internships, campus jobs and club roles can be written as clear, results-based bullets.

Formats & sizes

Microsoft Word .docx in US Letter (8.5 × 11 in) and A4 (210 × 297 mm), plus PDF previews. Headings use the free Google Font Poppins and body text uses Lato (links in the README). If they are not installed, Word substitutes default fonts and the layout still works, with small spacing changes.

How to edit

Open the file for your paper size in Word 2016 or newer, Word for Microsoft 365, Google Docs or LibreOffice and type over the sample text. The design is built to be ATS-friendly: your name, contact details and every section are real text in the document body, never in headers, footers or text boxes. The two columns use Word’s built-in column layout and read in order, main column first, so education and experience are parsed before the sidebar. The light sidebar tint is a decorative background shape with no text in it. Real Word styles (Heading 1, Heading 2, List Bullet, Sidebar Heading, Sidebar Text) keep everything consistent as you edit. Save as PDF to send.

Who it’s for

Students, new graduates, interns and early-career job seekers with up to about two years of experience, in marketing, business, communications, tech, science or any field where you lead with your degree. It also works for internship and graduate program applications. Have more experience? Our Modern Minimal Resume Template puts work history first.
