Tips from recruiters
List licences and qualifications (CPA, CFA, bar admission) prominently; they are often hard filters.
Use a conservative, single-column layout; finance and legal readers value precision over style.
Quantify the scale you handled: revenue, assets, deal value or number of matters.
Recommended templates
Ledger (ATS-friendly): moderncv banking: accent name, bold dates on the right
Ivy (ATS-friendly): Harvard-style Times layout with centered headings
Classic (ATS-friendly): Jake's-style LaTeX classic: small caps and hairline rules
