Cascade Resume Template (2026)
The Cascade template brings flowing sophistication to split-label design with section names placed in the left margin. Teal accents add contemporary flair to the organized structure. The flowing layout allows content to cascade naturally while maintaining clear visual hierarchy. This design suits professionals with substantial content who prioritize readability and organization. The contemporary teal accents signal modernity while the structural clarity appeals to technical and analytical roles.

What Makes the Cascade Template Stand Out
ATS Compatibility
FairThis template prioritizes visual impact while maintaining functional ATS compatibility. Most modern applicant tracking systems handle it well, though heavily styled elements may be simplified during parsing. If you’re applying to companies known to use older ATS software, consider pairing this with a plainer version for the initial submission.
Split-label layouts place section names on the left and content on the right. ATS software reads this as label–value pairs, which most modern systems handle correctly.
- Best suited for roles where visual presentation matters: design, marketing, creative, and startup environments.
- For maximum compatibility, submit a simpler template version through ATS portals and use this template for direct emails or portfolio submissions.
- Core content (experience, education, skills) still parses correctly — visual styling is what may be simplified.
Customization Tips
Section labels on the left create a natural table of contents. Keep them concise — one or two words maximum.
The split layout gives recruiters a fast way to jump to specific sections. Make sure your section order matches what the role prioritizes.
This layout works exceptionally well for candidates with 5+ years of experience and multiple distinct skill areas.
Avoid adding too many sections — the split-label design works best with 4–6 well-organized sections.
