Hi
I am looking for examples / templates for CVs written using org, as I
decided to ose org for my CV.
I fund this oldish conversation
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2012-04/msg00096.html
and these two templates for using org to write a CV:
https://github.com/punchagan/resume
https://github.com/fasheng/fsh-orgmode-latex-cv
as well this CV without .org file
http://adamsonj.ninth.su/cv.html
Also, there does not seem to be anything on worg.
- Can somebody give any further info on org and CVs?
- How do you do it (I don't assume you write your CVs in Word?), or are
you using LaTeX directly?
- Any other examples and templates online?
If I get enough, I will compile a summary for worg, but I need examples
and information.
Thanks,
Rainer

I've been using "moderncv" for several years now and have been quite happy with it (though that was before I've started using org). But even now, I can't see how using org, would add to what I already have. Mind you, I tend to add to my CV (mainly publications and experience) and revise it when needed, rather than adapt it to different situations. Cheers, Andreas On 19 September 2014 19:40, Tory S.

Nice question, I will enjoy reading all the examples in this thread. For a bit, I tried to make org do everything, like export resumes to Word, Writer, LaTeX and ASCII from one tree. Eventually, I couldn't justify managing all the moving parts, but maybe one day... So I abandoned the export to word processors, though I had succeeded in applying template files. Too much going on behind the scenes for me, and requests for Word resumes should be rare enough that I just have notes on how to quickly format a resume there. After all, with so many OS and fonts, sending a Word document across OS can have unpredictable results. PDF or plain text is the way to go. (Interpretive dance is okay too.) And I did have a decent export to LaTeX resume from org, but after discovering moderncv, I've switched, though I will be curious to read others' methods of org-to-moderncv export. But what I do still use is export to ASCII, as editing an ASCII resume layout is a pain. Here is the crux of my template for that #+OPTIONS: toc:nil num:nil #+NAME: setup # I have no idea what this line is for, I found it on worg #+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp :results silent :exports none (setq org-ascii-headline-spacing '(0 . 1)) (setq org-ascii-inner-margin 5) (setq org-ascii-underline '((ascii nil ?= nil))) #+END_SRC * resume :export: #+BEGIN_CENTER Brady Trainor\\ algebrat@uw.edu -- (206) 898-4124 #+END_CENTER ** Experience *** Jan 0000-Present Position Location\\ Job description. ... etc. This is nice for sites that seem to prefer plain text, or demand it. I'm considering removing the centering, as some sites seem to remove the whitespace up to first character (B). Brady ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 28+ messages in thread

You can even do it all on the LaTeX side, e.g. redefining description (or using ¤+ATTR_LATEX) to make use of the description form "- year :: item" Together with rebinding the title-command it should be pretty easy to make a CV.

I reply to my question directly, as I am trying to sum up the replies so far (the complete thread is theoretically below). There are effectively two "schools", - using LaTeX (Tory, Andreas, John and Brady), and - using org (Dan, Myles(?) and Xavier) The reasons for using LaTeX directly were mainly the simplicity of using LaTeX directly instead of telling org how to export to the format wanted, while the reasons for using org were simplicity of editing in org and the export to different formats (apart from pdf also html). I will not go further into the LaTeX as there is a vast amount of info available on the Internets. My reasoning why I want to use org instead of LaTeX is the same as mentioned in the thread, which is the simplicity of editing in org. In addition, I like the different backends, and that the actual content is separated from the export. I like Dan's approach as it looks relatively simple, although I still have to look into it in detail (and as Joseph notes, there must be a problem in the code). Xavier's approach looks *very* impressive. I like the pdf, and I am seriously thinking of using it, but my problem is the complexity - if it breaks, I have no idea where to fix it. But as the original CV is in org, the data would be there and I simply have to change the export / publishing. So what am I going to do? I think I will start entering the CV into org and then use Xavier's or Dan's approach and then see if I can get a layout I like. I like the idea of Rasmus to re-define the description environment, and I might also play with this. I think that org could be a perfect environment for building CVs if one could come up with an HOWTO and many examples how to do it - and I think this is going into the right direction. So thanks a lot everybody for their input so far and keep the comments and ideas flowing. Rainer torys.anderson@gmail.com (Tory S.

I think the "right" approach is cooking up a reasonable way to represent CVs and make an ox-cv with a customized interface (like ox-koma-letter where ordering of blocks can also be changed "on-the-go") and provide some nice default "themes". It should either build on an established LaTeX cv package or just KOMA-Script like Xavier's CV (and mine). I didn't check the ox-cv.el that was posted carefully.
