A good balance between highly technical and creatively designed is to write your resume with TeX.

  Is that more of a recommendation or a hard requirement? I've been using a bland resume that I thought would check all the boxes inside an ATS.

    Just a recommendation. TeX is a very engineer-oriented design tool. An interesting way to spruce up your resume.

    It's a very good recommendation. Simply being aware that TeX/LaTeX is a thing (it's very recognizable) is something that I tend to appreciate in an engineer.

  I used to think this was a good idea, but I see so many resumes done in TeX that they cease to stand out.
  • Sir_Cmpwn 8y ago
    Of course, just throwing TeX at your resume isn't enough. However, TeX gives you tools at an engineer's level which can be used to make your resume stand out.

  What is up with this bs... cant you guys read the content and decipher if the candidate is intervewable*. Whats up with american psycho business card routine I have education , and job history ... im succinct with tech info and explain any management responsibilities. What does it matter if that is monospaced or in tex?
