Showcase your creative background with this free designer resume and cover letter template, created for professionals who want a polished application with a distinctive visual presentation. The template balances creative styling with a structured format, giving you space to highlight your experience, capabilities, education, and other career information.

Available as a PSD source file, the template is fully layered and editable in Adobe Photoshop. You can modify the text, replace content, and adjust the design to match your personal style or the requirements of a particular job application.
