Frequently asked questions
Practical details about formatting, ATS compatibility, and customizing the Lyon CV Moderne template.
Are two-column CVs ATS-friendly in France?
This design keeps one reading order — the sidebar holds lists, not the main timeline — which is the structure parsers handle best.
How do I present a stage or alternance?
Give the company, the mission, the dates and two measurable results, exactly as you would for a permanent role.
Is the Lyon CV Moderne template really ATS-friendly?
ATS products and employer configurations differ, so this template cannot guarantee parsing or screening results.

You can export a PDF, Microsoft Word (DOCX), or plain-text (TXT) file without a watermark. Review the downloaded file before sending it and follow the employer's requested file format. ATS products and employer settings differ, so no template or export can guarantee parsing in every system.
