It’s reasonably straightforward to produce a very nice resume/CV in LaTeX.
- crossroadsguy 3y agoMaybe. But that’s like learning to build a car and then building one and fine tuning one because I had to go to an office 200 meters away once in a few years. Yeah, I did Texin’ in college and tried after that as well. No body gave a shit and now when I look at CVs for hiring purposes I don’t give a shit either. Now my CV is on a live.com free throwaway account — that’s where it resides and gets worked upon and converted to PDF when needed.

- erik_seaberg 3y agoWhy isn’t it table stakes to accept PDF? Recruiters have been caught using Word to make false changes in a candidates’ résumé.
- lokar 3y agoIME they will always take PDF if you insist, and I recommend you do. It makes it harder for them to edit it.
- lobocinza 3y agoPandoc easily converts back and forth and Libreoffice can edit docx.
