About this template
Aurora combines the structure of a professional resume with the visual vocabulary of a creative portfolio. Skill chips display your tools and specialisms at a glance; the avatar integrates personal brand naturally; the two-column layout balances experience depth with visual interest.
For creative professionals where tool fluency matters — designers who need to show Figma, Sketch, and Adobe CC expertise; UX researchers demonstrating research methods; motion designers showing After Effects and Cinema 4D — Aurora's chip system surfaces that competency immediately.
Aurora is more ATS-friendly than other visual templates — the two-column structure uses a standard layout that most modern ATS systems parse correctly. CVEdge's analyser will flag any issues specific to your content.
For junior to mid-level creative roles at startups, agencies, and in-house teams, Aurora is the most versatile creative template: visual enough to signal design awareness, structured enough to pass most automated screening.
Who is this template for?
- UX and product designers (junior to lead)
