Modern Sidebar template FAQs
Do two-column resumes break ATS?
Many do — but ours does not. The Modern Sidebar PDF orders your main experience before the sidebar in the underlying text, so applicant tracking systems read it in the right order even though it looks two-column.
Who should avoid a sidebar template?
If you are applying to very conservative fields (law, some government roles) or a posting that explicitly asks for a simple format, the single-column ATS Classic is the safer pick.
