What defines this layout

  • Sans-serif typeface
  • Two columns with a dark rail
  • Includes an avatar or photo
  • Headings with no rule
  • Dates right-aligned against each role

Every one of these is a setting, not a constraint — accent colour, font, size, spacing and page margins stay yours under Customize, and switching template later re-renders what you’ve written rather than starting it over.

Using Monolith as a CV

Monolith carries a photo, which is what a continental European CV expects alongside the personal details a British one leaves out. For the UK, Ireland or Australia, turn the photo off in Customize — the layout closes up around it and the rest of the page is unchanged.

It sits at a normal density, which lands most histories on the two pages a non-academic CV is expected to fit.

Is Monolith the right choice?

Who it suits

Bold, photographic pages for creative and technical work. The black rail and the oversized name are a single idea, twice.

What it does to ATS parsing

Two columns with a filled rail. Worth checking; the rail is the darkest here.

At two pages

Heavy to print at length, and the rail stops after the first page.

Use something else if

Vantage for the same oversized name without a filled rail, or Basalt for something less absolute.
