This is one of the best templates I've seen - simple and easy. When I scan hundreds of resumes every year, it's a pain when many think they have to be special with their design. Keep it simple and stupid and forget your playful design.

I do love this article for 2 reasons:

1- during my professional and even student life I've heard 1000 different things about "best practices" for CVs and all of them were different and different companies always have also different opinions (or even people inside the same company can have different views) - so I think let's just keep it simple, straight forward, that's the approach that I think it works best for everybody!

2- This is a method I also like to use inside my product management methodology as well -> sames we don't need to be complex or overcomplicate things, most of the time, make it simple it's the key for a lot of decision-making

This is THE ABSOLUTE BEST advice I’ve seen on crafting your cv.

I came onto the job market after being rif’ed last august. After talking with a number of recruiters and hiring managers, I rewrote my cv to answer the questions the would ask me in the first conversation. Things like team size, revenue responsibility, key outcomes, etc.
