About the Timeline template
Timeline arranges a single column around a vertical line: each experience and education entry is attached to a hollow teal node, dates appear in rounded pills at the right margin and section headings carry the same hollow circle. The name combines a light first name with a bold surname, contact details run beneath with small icons, and the skills section splits into two sub-columns of skill bars. Type is sans-serif throughout. The narrative structure suits candidates whose career is best read as a sequence: consultants, project managers, researchers and anyone with a steady progression to show.
One accent colour drives nodes, pills, bars and headings, so the teal can be changed with a single setting. No photo is shown by default; skill bars and language bars are on. Timeline is the free alternative to Monogram, which uses diamond markers and a two-column layout, and it offers more visual rhythm than Classic. This CV template is free.
