Why Topaz?

Topaz brings more colour range than most ATS-friendly templates. Where other single-column layouts give you shades of blue and grey, Topaz includes golden amber, warm rose, purple, and teal alongside the blues. It scores 9.5/10 on ATS compatibility, so all that colour does not cost you anything in terms of parsing accuracy.

The template uses an inline pipe-separated contact layout, similar to Nickel, which keeps the header compact. Your name sits prominently at the top, followed by your contact details on one line, and then straight into your content. It is efficient with vertical space, which means more room for the sections that matter.

Who should use this template?

Topaz works across industries, but it is especially good for people who want their resume to feel warm and approachable rather than corporate and stiff. Marketing managers, project coordinators, customer success leads, educators, healthcare administrators, and nonprofit professionals will find it fits the tone they are going for.

The colour range also makes Topaz a strong pick for people applying to companies with strong brand identities. You can match your resume accent colour to a company's brand palette without it looking forced.

For a template with a similar creative angle but deeper, more saturated colours, Cobalt focuses on bold blues and purples. If you want the same high ATS score in a more grounded, minimal style, Limestone strips away the colour and lets structure do the work. And for a tech-focused template with teal and grey tones, Nickel shares the same inline contact layout.

What you get

• A single-column layout with a 9.5/10 ATS score
• 7 colour themes including golden amber, warm rose, teal, purple, blue, and two neutral options
• The default font is Avrile Sans, a clean geometric sans-serif. You can switch to any available font (Inter, Poppins, Lora, Century Gothic, and more) in Laddro
• An inline pipe-separated contact section that keeps your header to one or two lines
• Multi-page support for longer resumes

ATS compatibility

Topaz scores 9.5/10. The bright colours are purely cosmetic and have zero impact on parsing:

1. Single-column layout with no tables, sidebars, or text boxes. Parsers read it straight through.
2. Every character is real text. Colour is applied through styling, not images.
3. Standard section headings that ATS systems pick up automatically.

It parses correctly on LinkedIn, Indeed, Greenhouse, Workday, and every other major platform.

Colour options

Topaz comes with 7 colour variations:

• Classic black text on white for situations where you want to play it safe
• Sky blue for a friendly, professional look
• Teal green for a calm, grounded feel
• Golden amber that gives the template its warm, energetic character
• Purple for a creative but polished impression
• Warm rose for something different without being loud
• A light grey background option that softens the overall look

The colours affect section headings and accent elements. Body text stays dark and readable in every variation.

Tips for getting the most out of Topaz

1. The warm colour options (amber, rose) pair well with roles in people-facing industries: HR, education, healthcare, hospitality. The cooler tones (blue, teal) suit tech and finance.
2. Since the contact layout is compact, make sure your summary is strong. It is the first thing a reader sees after your name and details.
3. Use the colour to create visual consistency. If your LinkedIn banner or portfolio site uses a similar tone, the resume feels like part of a cohesive personal brand.
4. For printed copies, the golden amber and teal themes look particularly good on standard white paper.
