A CV in LaTeX does not have to be typesetted in Computer Modern nor have a dry "LaTeX feel". Using XeTeX, TikZ, fontspec and Open Type fonts you can do fun stuff that look gorgeous.
The great thing for me is that I can directly import my .bib and all my publications are automagically included in my CV. My attempt: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3809633/cv_adrien_friggeri.pdf http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3809633/cv_adrien_friggeri.pdf (slightly out of date, should recompile and update)
- idank 14y agoIt's a bit too 'colory' for my taste but I like the design. Is it open source?
- joezydeco 14y agoGood suggestion. I don't know what it is about Computer Modern but when I see a document formatted in that font, my subconscious automatically says "still in academia".
- jvm 14y agoI think that's because it's hideous, so you can only get away with hideous in academia. I am in academia but under no circumstances do I use CM.
