Interesting approach. I am currently looking for jobs and went the 'career coaching' route for my CV. I did a few iterations with my coach until I got my current result (ideally I had a link):
I first looked at Canva templates, but apparently nowadays you are supposed to do black/white and no fancy designs for ATS readability. Then I tried it with Google Docs b/w resumee template, which kinda got me to write actual skills. Then I approached the coach, got her template and iterated, and then I also added some rules from here (https://principiae.be/pdfs/ECV-1.01.pdf).
I also involved ChatGPT to analyze job postings and to get the mix of keywords in my resumme right. Tools like https://tagcrowd.com/ also help with that. For example, I am targeting 'IT analyst' roles, and it does make sense that I have the word 'analysis' a few times in my CV.
E: mine is basically structured the following way
Name
Title
Summary
3x5 ATS keywords/skills specific to my profile and role
last ten years, also written in a way that 'gamifies' ATS: 'Year, worked as ROLE at Company, did XYZ'
--page 2--
Education (degree + grades)
Skills Training
Languages
Some more IT skills (programming languages, project management, ...)
E2: I obviously have no idea what I am doing, but I got three interview proposals for 10 applications, so I guess 30%.
