Oh interesting, I recognize like 3 or 4 of these CV templates from current candidates, haha. Curious to know where they come from.
But on topic - as an admin or developer, style just doesn't matter to me beyond an initial notice of "This looks nice" or so. To me it borders more on a good sign if I can recognize that someone just shoved something through asciidoc to get a PDF.
I much rather care if the CV is put together well and doesn't look sloppy. We had one CV come in that had just broken formatting - linebreaks in headings inside words, typos and such. That's not a good flag. Like, if you can't care to move a linebreak in a CV 8 characters earlier for the same overall space used, what'll you do with critical production data?
And beyond that, the focus in CVs to me is to be easy to skim. A good CV allows me to look at the positions for a minute or so and I can get an initial idea that they're a good fit for something the team needs and I should spend more time on this candidate.
But that being sad, the CVs I got based on novoresume minimalist or elementary were on the good and effective side.
