Career Edge

Sidebar on the right, so the page opens with your work.

The two-column economy of a sidebar, with the columns the other way round. Experience starts at the top-left where the eye lands; skills, tools and certifications sit in a tinted rail down the right. It also matches how most parsers read a two-column page, wide column first, so the section you care most about is the one that gets read first.
