Harvard resume template — clean classic layout that still parses
What a Harvard-style resume template gets right (clarity, hierarchy, proof) and how to adapt it for Seek ATS without campus-only formatting quirks.
"Harvard resume template" searches usually want a classic, conservative layout: clear name block, education and experience with dates aligned, restrained typography, and bullets that show impact. That pattern still works for Australian corporate and graduate applications — as long as you drop campus-only extras.
What to keep from the Harvard style
Single column. Standard section labels. Education with degree, institution, and date. Experience with role, employer, dates, and 3–5 proof bullets. Skills listed as plain text — not bars.
What to change for Seek and ATS
Remove photos, GPA theatre unless asked, and US-only mailing address blocks. Use AU spelling and city/state contact. Prefer PDF for Seek unless Word is required.
