    The best-known CV format in Europe

    The Europass CV is one of the best-known CV formats in Europe. (emphasis added)

    Straight to lying clickbait, unbelievable. /s

    I hate the Europass template, it looks so ugly. But nowadays no one even bothers to read the CV, they probably just feed it to some AI and ask to summarize it, so all my efforts to make it look pretty are wasted.

    I thought some of the options looks "fine" aesthetically, but I think I've already been corrupted to prioritize machine-readability over ✨style✨, and that's already from pre-chatGPT days haha - you should see how ugly some of the templates I was given at uni were compared to this :P
