Weigh a designed resume against screening and accessibility.

The Open buttons send the prompt text as currently shown below to that site only when you click. Fill in the placeholders first.
Audit a visually designed resume for a creative role. Describe the design (colours, fonts, layout, icons, infographics): [DESIGN_DESCRIPTION]. Text content: [TEXT_CONTENT]. Where it will be sent (email, portal, print): [CHANNELS]. Check contrast, font size, reading order, the risk of text being unreadable in a screening tool, and whether decoration hides information. Judge whether the design demonstrates skill relevant to the job or distracts from the evidence. Check accessibility for screen readers and colour-blind readers. Return a table of Element, Impact on readability, Impact on screening, Keep or change, plus a recommendation for two versions: a designed one for human readers and a plain one for portals. Score each from 1 to 10 on readability and personality. Add a test I can run myself: print the resume in grey scale, view it at half size on a phone, and run a screen reader or text extraction. Record what is lost in each test and whether it matters for the roles I am targeting, then recommend the smallest design changes that fix it.
