# Choosing a template
> Learn how to choose the perfect template for your resume and explore all available template designs in Reactive Resume.
Reactive Resume offers a variety of unique templates, each with its own design aesthetic. This guide will help you understand the differences between templates and how to change your resume's template at any time.
## How to change your template
Changing your resume template is simple and can be done at any time without losing any of your content.
Navigate to your Dashboard and click on the resume you want to edit.
In the resume builder, look for the right sidebar. This is where you'll find all the design and layout options.
In the right sidebar, find and click on the **Template** section to expand it.
Browse through the available templates and click on the one you want to use. Your resume will instantly update to reflect the new design.
After changing the template, review your resume in the live preview. You may want to adjust spacing, colors, or layout to optimize for the new design.
Different templates may display your content differently. Some templates work better with shorter content, while others are designed to handle more detailed information.
## Tips for choosing the right template
Different industries have different expectations:
* **Creative fields** (design, marketing, arts): Templates with more visual flair like Gengar or Pikachu
* **Corporate/Traditional** (finance, law, consulting): Clean, minimal templates like Onyx or Ditto
* **Tech/Startups**: Modern, balanced templates like Chikorita or Leafish
If you have a lot of experience to showcase, choose a template with efficient space usage. For shorter resumes,
templates with more white space can make your content feel more substantial.
Your resume is part of your personal brand. Choose a template that reflects your personality while remaining
professional and appropriate for your target roles.
Don't choose a template based on how it looks empty. Fill in your actual content and see how it flows across pages. What looks great with sample data might not work as well with your specific information.
