Metro Resume Template (2026)
The Metro template brings urban sophistication to two-column design with a right sidebar and warm amber accents. The clean geometry and bold sans-serif typography project modernity and forward thinking. Contact information and supplementary details sit in the distinguished right sidebar while work experience dominates the main column. The amber accent color adds warmth without sacrificing professionalism. Perfect for tech professionals, urban creatives, and anyone seeking contemporary design language.

What Makes the Metro Template Stand Out
ATS Compatibility
GoodThis template offers strong ATS compatibility. Modern applicant tracking systems parse it accurately, and its structure preserves your content hierarchy. A small number of legacy ATS platforms may reorder decorative elements, but your core content — experience, skills, education — comes through intact.
Two-column layouts are well-supported by modern ATS. The main content column is always parsed first, ensuring your experience and achievements lead. Sidebar content (skills, contact info) follows naturally.
- This template works well for most corporate applications. For ultra-conservative industries (federal government, large banks), consider a Classic or Traditional template.
- Your key content — job titles, company names, dates, bullet points — is structured for reliable extraction.
- Visual accents and styling are cosmetic and don’t interfere with content parsing.
Customization Tips
Put your most relevant skills in the sidebar where they’re immediately visible. Order them by relevance to the target role.
Keep sidebar content scannable — short labels, not paragraphs. The main column is for detailed experience.
Match the sidebar accent color to your industry: blue for corporate, teal for tech, warm tones for creative roles.
If your skills list is long, group them by category (Languages, Frameworks, Tools) to improve readability.
