ORAVANTO UNIVERSAL CV & RESUME TEMPLATES
A One-Page ATS-Friendly Resume Bundle for Early-Career Talent
Early-career candidates do not need to imitate a ten-year career; they need to make genuine preparation easier to evaluate.
About Gridwork
Gridwork is a universal one-page resume template — a job-application resume or CV and matching cover letter designed around the evidence graduates and early-career applicants actually have: education, internships, traineeships, academic or portfolio projects, tools, certifications and measurable contributions. Its compact hierarchy connects preparation with the target role without padding the page with generic claims.
Why Gridwork Is Different
- Project-led evidence sections. Academic, training and portfolio work carry legitimate weight.
- One-page discipline. Limited experience stays focused instead of looking underfilled.
- A letter that adds context. Room to explain motivation, learning and context the resume cannot carry.
- Guided editing, not empty boxes. Practical guidance follows each template, and completed samples show the finished result.
ATS-Friendly by Design
The resume uses native Word paragraphs, styles, tab stops, borders and shading — no text boxes, layout tables, page columns, photographs, images or icons. Standard headings and a predictable reading order reduce common parsing obstacles. Keep the finished resume to one page by removing weaker content, not by shrinking fonts or margins. No template can guarantee identical results across every ATS.

Who Gridwork Is For
Students, recent graduates, interns, trainees and early-career professionals with no more than one or two substantive roles. Use it as a professional resume or job-application CV across functions and industries — the Software Developer — Cloud Applications sample shows the finished structure; it does not define your occupation.
Choose another format if you need a mid-career or senior application that needs two pages for leadership scope, multiple roles or extensive achievements.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is Gridwork an ATS-friendly resume template?
Gridwork uses an ATS-friendly Word structure with native text, standard headings and a straightforward reading order, and avoids photographs, text boxes, page columns and decorative images. No template can guarantee identical parsing or selection across every ATS; your content, keywords, file type and the employer’s system also matter.
Can I use Gridwork as a CV?
Yes — as a professional resume or job-application CV. It is not intended for academic, research or medical CVs that need extensive publications, grants, teaching history or specialist credentials.
What software and fonts do I need?
Microsoft Word desktop on Windows or macOS. Gridwork uses Cambria and Corbel; font files are not included. Other editors, including Google Docs, Apple Pages, Word for the web and mobile apps, are not supported and may change the layout.
Do I receive both US Letter and A4 versions?
Yes — editable US Letter and A4 versions of both the resume and cover letter. The completed samples are reference PDFs in US Letter only.
Do I receive all three colorways?
No. Each purchase includes one selected colorway: Navy–Teal, Plum–Bronze or Forest–Clay. Every option has the same structure and supporting resources.
Is Gridwork only for Software Developer — Cloud Applications roles?
No. Gridwork is universal. The completed sample shows an early-career Software Developer — Cloud Applications profile combining two years of experience, education, certifications and practical projects. Replace it with your own accurate career information and target-role evidence. Working in accounting or finance? See the role-specific resume templates.
Does this include resume writing or personalization?
No. Gridwork is a self-editable template bundle. Oravanto’s personalized resume, cover letter and career services are separate purchases.
