5 Examples of Beautiful Resume/CV Web Templates
Did you know that we recently launched a new sub-category on ThemeForest, specifically for resumes/CVs optimized for the web? It’s becoming more and more common for potential employers to simply request a link to your website, rather than a sheet of paper. Though the category only launched a few weeks ago, we’ve already received a handful of beautiful designs.
1. Clean CV / Resume Html Template + 4 Bonuses
2. Awesome Online Resume/CV
3. Smart CV – Resume Theme
4. Resume (CV) Perfecto
5. Major – Resume Template
Think you can do Better?
If so, why not head over to ThemeForest and submit your own design? There’s a lot of money to be made, but you have to submit something first!!

These are great. I would have to say my favorite would have to be the first one.
Agreed.
Though the others are still pretty nice.
Strongly agreed. I think #4 is a little over done to add.
wow, very awesome design, thank god i have a references now for work on my college tasks. . .
beautiful resumes
I like the first one as well. Clean, simple and clean. Clean? Did I mention that before?
wow beautiful resumes
beautiful
They feel generic.
Then by all means – submit a better one! :)
Yeah feel generic, but the point is – the simple the better. They look more professional and appealing to me.
nice template!
I like the second one =D
The 3rd one was great, really like the originality of it.
I like the first one best :)
I’d go for the DUUUUDE man! :)
i like the first one…simple and beautiful…
I’m always interested to see web design CV’s and portfolios, whether they are templates or real designers sites. The five offered here show quite a range of layout options and styles.
‘Smart CV’ certainly stands out to me as the most modern and boldest layout covered. I particularly like the usage of headings with the large fonts and contrasting colours. Using black blue and pink is quite a mix, but is used to good effect here.
It would be nice to see some tutorials on CV and portfolio design, maybe covering the key points to include, some additional features and how to go about this. Designers are constantly updating their online branding and portfolios, so maybe covering how to perfect a portfolio would be useful.
I agree about the tutorial on CV and portfolio design.
Jeffrey start writing :)
That would be a great tutorial.
Pure Awesome!
smart cv in good practice
I like “Clean CV / Resume Html Template + 4 Bonuses” the most. They’re all great but that one is clean and organized and it’s simply perfect for a resume.
Thanks for the roundup :)
wo.. nice! this is exactly what I need coz I’m currently looking for a new job :D thanks and wish me luck!
nice one
Are all of those conveniently on sale at themeforest.net?
Number Four is Perfect I guess
The first one is my favorite out of them all, but they are all great.
Like them! gave me great ideas for my own CV!
First and third are just awesome
My one didn’t make this list: http://themeforest.net/item/see-vee-online-resumecv/82111
The first one is the best, mine is very basic in comparison!!
it sucks that now we have to deal with this pseudo-ads…. =/
looks good, for online portfolio site
Great,
Thanks for references!!!
What this doesn’t mention is that no matter how good your portfolio site is, there are a thousand other candidates with just as good portfolios vying for the same position. Do yourself a favor, make a decent portfolio site and focus more of your attention to the skill of taking a lot of rejection and picking yourself up by the bootstraps and continuing on in spite of it all. I’m trying not to be a downer about this but this is the reality of the situation; we can’t all be Dan Cederholm or Cameron Moll.
Excelente idea!!!
Voy a diseñar la mia. =)
http://swy.me/resume
Got me a job within 2 weeks just for having it online!
i need choose one.
That’s a great article. I’d like to see such templates for paper resume as well. These are so perfect!!
When did people start putting their pictures on a resume? I thought that was taboo!
This is good, but do you really think you want to share all this information on your website? Wouldn’t it be a better idea to use linkedIn for example, or have the employer request a PDF file from your website? A random person shouldn’t have to find out what school I went to and what companies I worked for, or my home address and phone number for that matter.
First one is definitely my favorite also. Great clean design.
But again, is this really the right way to do this..
simple and efficient.
Some very nice templates but I’m wondering something – how do recruiters react to these sites when they see them? It would be nice to get some feedback from the other side, so to speak. Would a well designed CV website help or hinder?
Has anyone used a web CV template and been successful in getting the job, and what feedback did you get on the CV?
Quick PE moan – is the author of number 4 about? Why is the CSS included via JS?
is where some more examples? i like it all, and will be great to have some more :)
Simply awesome…
no 1 and 3 are the best for me!
I have made many a CV in my time, and woah OMG seriously people, these are so unprofessional… terrible.
Cool resumes. Number one works for me. There should be a company that specializes making this available to the masses.
Very nice samples :)))
Thanks. Very helpful
smart CV fails on Firefox once you start resizing the text. Liquid it ain’t. Actually, this is first page I seen fail because I made the text too small.
Are those resume sites meant to be just examples, or can we download them as a CMS template whatsoever to customize and use for our own resumes?
…. cool templates for resumes…. I find the most simple and to the point styles work the best…. most potential employers are very busy and get annoyed quickly if they have to search more than 2 pages…. if you can keep it to one page it’s even better…. on-line or printed resumes…. keep them as short as possible !! These are just my feelings about the concepts !! :)
Love some of these, would use some for more than just resume too
Jeffrey Lebowski??? LOL – oh that just stopped me dead in my tracks ! LOL – the Dude doesnt send CV’s maaaaaan ! hes the Dude , he doesnt work – he just bowls ! =)) no, seriously – 3 of these are really smooth – the rest …. mehh :| ok kewl roundup dudes :D
Your site is one of the best example of Finest and Excellent Site for cvs. Thanks.
