What this template covers

The layout is a clean single column with 5 sections in the order recruiters expect: Objective → Education → Academic Projects → Internships & Training → Skills & Activities. Every section contains placeholder text describing exactly what to put there, so you are never staring at a blank heading. The single-column structure also keeps it readable by applicant tracking systems (ATS).

Frequently asked questions

Is this Fresher / Graduate Resume Template ATS-friendly?

Yes — it uses a single column, standard headings and no text boxes, tables or graphics, which is exactly what applicant tracking systems parse most reliably.

Should I keep it to one page?

For most applicants, yes — especially with under ten years of experience. Cut the least relevant bullet points rather than shrinking the font below 10pt.

Is the Fresher / Graduate Resume Template really free?

Yes — free for personal and business use, with no signup and no watermark. You may not resell or republish the template itself, but documents you create with it are entirely yours.
