I use org-mode as my document production software.
|
||||||
|
This means that I produce everything in Org.
|
||||||
|
Notes, papers, presentations, and now my resume.
|
||||||
|
</p>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<p>
|
||||||
|
When I began looking at resume production with Org, I noticed the lack of straightforward packages and user guides.
|
||||||
|
I'm sure there's something out there, but I sure couldn't find it.
|
||||||
|
</p>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<p>
|
||||||
|
The simplest raw-org method I found is the use of <a href="https://orgmode.org/manual/Macro-Replacement.html">macros</a>, along with a custom export-template.
|
||||||
|
This approach is nice because it can be adaptede to any standard LaTeX template.
|
||||||
|
In my case, <a href="https://github.com/dnl-blkv/mcdowell-cv/blob/master/mcdowellcv.cls">McDowell CV</a> by Daniil Belyakov is perfect.

First, get the <code>.cls</code> for your desired template.
|

|
If it's on texlive, just install it the usual way.
|
||||||
|
Since the template I want is on Github, I'll just put the <code>.cls</code> into <code>/home/user/texmf/tex/latex/</code>.

At the top of my resume file I use a config block to keep my macro definitions tidy:

<div class="org-src-container">

Other options can be set here as well, of course.
|
||||||
|
</p>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<p>
|
||||||
|
If you're using some other resume template, or even some unrelated LaTeX template,
|
||||||
|
you can see how easy it would be to adapt the macro workflow.

After you've set up your macros, use is simple.
|
||||||
|
You use standard org headlines with the <code>ignore</code> tag to structure your document, and then macros to manage the cv content.
|
||||||
|
<img src="https://judah.freedomland.xyz//static/img/edu-record-sample.svg" alt="image" />
|
||||||
|
Notice that I separate the ending macros using another header line.
|
||||||
|
I'm not sure why that's necessary, but when I attempt to remove it, export breaks.
|
||||||
|
</p>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<p>
|
||||||
|
I like to keep my resume on a single sheet.
|
||||||
|
This requires some content juggling, but it forces me to filter out everything that is unimportant.
|
||||||
|
Of course, being young I have little content and so I can fit just about everything.
|
||||||
|
</p>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<p>
|
||||||
|
If you're in school, the careers department can almost certainly help you out with more specific style guides.
|
||||||

<div class="outline-text-2" id="text-3">
|
||||||
|
<p>
|
||||||
|
Back when configuring the <a href="#custom-class-org">custom class</a> you may have noticed the rows of cons cells underneath the header-string.
|
||||||
|
These define what each level of org-header is to translate into.
|
||||||
|
If you're paying attention you've also noticed that McDowellCV provides a set of commands <code>cvsection</code> and <code>cvsubsection</code> that would work perfectly in this scenario.
|
||||||
|
You're right, except that these commands require extra properties to specify dates and other features.
|
||||||
|
</p>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<p>
|
||||||
|
At some point I'll figure out how to pass parameters into them through the default header-export mechanism.
|
||||||
|
For now I'm comfortable with my macros.

I use org-mode as my document production software.
|
||||||
|
This means that I produce everything in Org.
|
||||||
|
Notes, papers, presentations, and now my resume.
|
||||||
|
</p>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<p>
|
||||||
|
When I began looking at resume production with Org, I noticed the lack of straightforward packages and user guides.
|
||||||
|
I'm sure there's something out there, but I sure couldn't find it.
|
||||||
|
</p>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<p>
|
||||||
|
The simplest raw-org method I found is the use of <a href="https://orgmode.org/manual/Macro-Replacement.html">macros</a>, along with a custom export-template.
|
||||||
|
This approach is nice because it can be adaptede to any standard LaTeX template.
|
||||||
|
In my case, <a href="https://github.com/dnl-blkv/mcdowell-cv/blob/master/mcdowellcv.cls">McDowell CV</a> by Daniil Belyakov is perfect.

First, get the <code>.cls</code> for your desired template.
|

If it's on texlive, just install it the usual way.
|

Since the template I want is on Github, I'll just put the <code>.cls</code> into <code>/home/user/texmf/tex/latex/</code>.

|

If you're using some other resume template, or even some unrelated LaTeX template,
|
||||||
|
you can see how easy it would be to adapt the macro workflow.

<p>

After you've set up your macros, use is simple.
|
||||||
|
You use standard org headlines with the <code>ignore</code> tag to structure your document, and then macros to manage the cv content.
|
||||||
|
<img src="https://judah.freedomland.xyz//static/img/edu-record-sample.svg" alt="image" />
|
||||||
|
Notice that I separate the ending macros using another header line.
|
||||||
|
I'm not sure why that's necessary, but when I attempt to remove it, export breaks.
|
||||||
|
</p>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<p>
|
||||||
|
I like to keep my resume on a single sheet.
|
||||||
|
This requires some content juggling, but it forces me to filter out everything that is unimportant.
|
||||||
|
Of course, being young I have little content and so I can fit just about everything.
|
||||||
|
</p>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<p>
|
||||||
|
If you're in school, the careers department can almost certainly help you out with more specific style guides.

<p>
|
||||||
|
Back when configuring the <a href="#custom-class-org">custom class</a> you may have noticed the rows of cons cells underneath the header-string.
|
||||||
|
These define what each level of org-header is to translate into.
|
||||||
|
If you're paying attention you've also noticed that McDowellCV provides a set of commands <code>cvsection</code> and <code>cvsubsection</code> that would work perfectly in this scenario.
|
||||||
|
You're right, except that these commands require extra properties to specify dates and other features.
|
||||||
|
</p>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<p>
|
||||||
|
At some point I'll figure out how to pass parameters into them through the default header-export mechanism.
|
||||||
|
For now I'm comfortable with my macros.
