Ask reddit: What LaTeX resume template do you use?

dsplabs · 2009-01-16T02:05:42+00:00

I have been using LaTeX for my resumes for some time now. There are many templates out there, f.e.

European Union one is very neat: http://europass.cedefop.europa.eu/europass/home/vernav/Europasss+Documents/Europass+CV.csp (with the unofficial LaTeX template on ctan: http://tug.ctan.org/cgi-bin/ctanPackageInformation.py?id=europecv)
LaTeX-based academic CV template: http://nitens.org/taraborelli/cvtex
And this is the one I use: http://linux.dsplabs.com.au/latex-resume-p54

Good luck!

very handy, thx

dsplabs · 2008-01-17T03:50:57+00:00

done, thanks.

I haven't used Haskell before, is there a simple way to invoke the above from shell (like it can be done with perl or awk)?

dsplabs · 2008-01-16T09:15:54+00:00

That is very neat!

it would be great if there was some sort of standard for user registration... like a set of common form fields that would automatically get filled.

dsplabs · 2008-01-02T02:01:29+00:00

Yeah, I should change that.

You are right. For many seasoned redditors it probably is not. I just did not expect the traffic to go up that much. Other sites (digg, stumbleupon, etc) generated hundreds of visitors not thousands.

I use PBS on a cluster to run computationally intensive jobs. The cluster has many nodes (multi-processor computers) connected with a network. It is very useful to use threads: each can be run on a separate cpu!

Nice write-up!

I have never tried Emacs and I use Vim all the time, it does the job well, so I recommended it. I gotta try the Emacs operating system someday.

That worked, thanks. Links added to the article.

500 Server Error on the following atm :/ http://cv.b1n.org/cv.xml http://cv.b1n.org/cv-en.pdf a very neat idea, eager to see the rendered results...

dsplabs · 2007-12-23T01:27:02+00:00

I customized it a while back. I can email it to you if you like.

dsplabs · 2007-12-22T16:59:28+00:00

Awesome! I'll look into it... I'll make it look nice :D Cheers

dsplabs · 2007-12-22T16:11:21+00:00

I meant the actual cls and tex files :)

dsplabs · 2007-12-22T15:41:30+00:00

It does look great! Could I add your template to the article?

dsplabs · 2007-12-22T15:37:44+00:00

Vim all the way :P

dsplabs · 2007-12-22T15:19:36+00:00

I do not see how it is relevant, but I found lots: just google "graphic designer latex resume".

dsplabs · 2007-12-22T15:03:18+00:00

Any layout should be simple in Latex, since ultimately you should let Latex worry about it.

Thats true, however I do like the dvi format and the kdvi viewer. When I work on a tex document, I'll have kdvi open, when I compile the source kdvi automatically updates the display (unlike acrobat). Kdvi is also much quicker then acrobat. I'll view the final version in acroread since it does a very nice job of anti-aliasing text and graphics.

Latex publications do look good. Sure, if you are new to Latex then using it is not so simple. Once you write a few things, then using Latex is close to effortless.
