Graphic Designer resume example
Designers are hired on their portfolio, so the job of the resume is to get it opened. This example keeps the layout clean and links the work near the top.
Template: Creative
What to include
- Put your portfolio link in the header, where it cannot be missed.
- Describe results of your design: engagement, sales, brand recognition.
- List software by name and the kinds of work you do best.
Why this resume works
- Almost every bullet contains a number, so the reader can see the size of the result.
- Bullets start with an action verb, not with “responsible for”.
- It fits on one page, which is what most recruiters prefer.
- Standard headings and real text mean applicant tracking systems read it correctly.
This example is fictional. Any resemblance to real people or companies is a coincidence.
