Classic Serif is a monochrome serif layout in the tradition of the popular LaTeX CVs: a name-and-contact header, an uppercase heading with a thin rule under each section, and bulleted entries with hollow sub-bullets for detail.

It is deliberately understated. There is no colour to date it and no graphics to confuse a parser, which makes it a dependable choice for engineering, research and public-sector applications.
