Who is this template for?
For bilingual professionals targeting Tokyo's international job market — engineers, data scientists, product managers and finance profiles applying to gaijin-friendly tech companies (Mercari, SmartNews, Rakuten English-track), foreign banks, consulting firms and Japanese subsidiaries of multinationals. Not adapted to traditional Japanese employers who still require handwritten rirekisho.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Is this CV template ATS-compatible?
Yes. Every CV on this platform is tested against the leading Applicant Tracking Systems (Workday, Taleo, Greenhouse, Lever, SmartRecruiters). Structure, fonts and section labels are parsed cleanly.
Can I change the colours or typography of this template?
Honest answer: no — the in-browser editor does not let you change the colours or typography of a given template. Each design is intentionally coherent. The good news is that our library offers 100+ templates with very different palettes and typographies (serif, sans-serif, monospace, sober or assertive accents). If this one isn't quite right, a close alternative almost certainly is.
What export formats are supported?
You can export to PDF (print-ready, ATS-safe) and DOCX (fully editable in Word, Google Docs, LibreOffice). Both preserve the design exactly.
Can I use the same template in multiple languages?
Yes — our Studio Agentic regenerates your content in any of 180+ languages while keeping the design identical. Useful when applying abroad or to international companies.
How long does it take to personalise?
Most candidates have their first version ready in under 10 minutes. The AI assistant suggests bullet points based on your job title and industry so you're never staring at a blank page.
