CV Template for Word
Design a CV and download it as a Word (.docx) file you can keep editing: contact details, skills and languages in the sidebar, profile, experience and education in the main column.
The CV maker is loading.
How it works
Pick a design
Ten to start from: a dark sidebar, a warm arch photo, classic and centred, bold yellow, a teal header, a minimal timeline, a simple ATS layout, a red sidebar, dark, and pastel shapes.
Fill in your details
Your name, job title, photo and contacts, a short profile, then your jobs, education, skills and languages. Each section flows into place; click anything on the page to edit it.
Download and apply
A PDF to send or upload, a Word file to keep editing (the same file opens in Google Docs), or plain text for job sites that want it pasted into a form.
Word CV templates to edit
Each cv template word design downloads as a .docx you can keep editing: contacts, skills and languages in the sidebar, the rest in the main column.
This word cv template keeps your photo and colours, and opens in Word, Google Docs, Pages and LibreOffice.

Why it matters
Real text, not a picture
The Word file has your CV as text and tables you can edit, and the PDF keeps its text, so an applicant tracking system can read it.
One page, laid out for you
Sections flow down their columns. A long CV is set a little smaller to fit, and the page tells you when to trim.
Change the design any time
Your details stay when you switch designs, colours or fonts; the cover letter takes them too.

Questions
Can I save it as a Word template?
Yes: File, Save As, Word Template (.dotx).
Is the Word CV editable?
Yes. Your details are ordinary Word text in a two-column table (the simple ATS design is plain paragraphs), so you can change, add or remove anything.
Which Word versions open it?
Word 2010 and later on Windows and Mac, Word on the web and the Word app, as well as Google Docs, Pages and LibreOffice.
Should I send Word or PDF?
Send a PDF unless the job asks for Word: it looks the same everywhere. Many job sites accept both; their tracking systems read either.
