What Bold does well
Numbers take center stage
With the supporting details in the sidebar, the main column is all achievements: quota, pipeline, revenue and launches.
Stands out in a stack
The color sidebar is distinctive at a glance, which suits roles where making an impression is part of the job.
Keeps the basics tidy
Contact details, skills and education sit together, easy to find without taking space from your experience.
- Sales and account executives
- Business development
- Product managers
- Customer success
- Startup generalists
Is Bold ATS-friendly?
A two-column layout. Most modern applicant tracking systems read it correctly, but some older systems can mix the columns together. For big-company or government portals, Minimal ATS or Aurora is the safer choice.
Tips for writing in Bold
- Open every bullet with a number where you can: “142% of quota”, “$2.1M pipeline”.
- Pick a dark accent so white sidebar text stays readable when printed.
- Keep the sidebar to essentials so it doesn’t run longer than the main column.
Before you send it, run it through the ATS resume checker, and tailor it to the job description you’re applying for.
