The Oceanblue template
For clients without a template of their own. The Oceanblue format puts the company letterhead at the top and leads with the summary and skills a hiring manager scans first.

What sets Oceanblue apart
Skills before history
The summary and grouped technical skills come ahead of work experience, so the fit is visible on the first page.
Your letterhead
The document opens with the Oceanblue letterhead, so the resume goes out as your firm’s presentation of the candidate.
Grouped skills
Skills stay in the categories the candidate used, each on its own labelled line.
