The UX Designer resume template

Your name sits inside a selected frame, the way it would on a design canvas, and your Case Studies appear as cards before your experience. It signals design fluency in one glance and then gets out of the way of the work.

The resume's only job

For designers, the resume gets someone to open your portfolio. So it needs a portfolio link in the header and two case studies good enough to make the click obvious.

Writing a case-study card

Use the Projects section. Title, a one-line context (tool, type), and a single outcome:

Checkout redesign — Case study, Figma. Cut checkout drop-off 23% after five rounds of usability testing.

Two cards fit side by side. Add the case-study URL so it is clickable in the PDF.

Experience

For each role: product, platform, team you worked with, and one or two outcomes. Name research methods you actually ran — interviews, usability tests, card sorts — rather than a generic "user-centred design".

Skills

Figma, prototyping, design systems, user research, accessibility (WCAG), basic HTML/CSS. Keep it to what a hiring manager would test you on.

Colour

The default pink suits consumer products. Pick the accent closest to your own portfolio so the two feel like a set.

If this one is not right

Three close alternatives, and every one carries your content across untouched when you switch.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Yes, but lightly. It should show hierarchy, spacing and restraint. The portfolio is where the visual work lives.

Two or three, each with a one-line outcome and a link. More than that turns the resume into a second portfolio.

Many companies do, and this template exports real text that parsers can read. Keep job titles and section names standard so they are recognised.
