Simple layouts still have different reading orders

Linear and Clarity use a conventional single column. Minimal places short section labels to the left, while Swiss uses a stronger grid. If your priority is a plain online application, start with Linear; if a person will read the PDF directly, compare the quieter visual alternatives too.

Edit the content before shrinking the type

Remove repeated statements and shorten older, less relevant roles before choosing compact spacing. A CV does not need every task you have ever done. Keep the examples that help the reader understand why you fit this particular opportunity.

Use the preview to choose the density

Balanced spacing is a useful starting point. Compact fits more information; Airy gives short documents more room. Longer CVs can continue onto additional pages, so you do not have to force a detailed career into unreadably small text.
