Who it suits
Applicants in education, healthcare, hospitality, wellbeing, and creative work who want a friendly, contemporary first impression.
Tide keeps one reading order from top to bottom, so a recruiter and an online application system meet your sections in the same sequence.
Its creative styling works best when design sense is part of the job, or when you send your CV directly to a person. For formal sectors, a quieter template may be the safer choice.
The profile photo is optional. CVs for jobs in the UK, Ireland, the US, and Canada usually leave it out, while a photo is more common in parts of continental Europe, the Middle East, and Asia. Follow the employer’s guidance when it is given.
