Share your cv

22 points by voiduser ↗ HN
I am looking at redesigning my CV. I was wondering if people would like to share examples of there CV (links only please do not paste the contents of your cv).

I have all the content but I just feel it looks dated and lacking that modern look and feel.

Thanks

A good place to start is here: https://jsonresume.org/

Provides a great structure and there are tons of templates which you can choose and customize easily.

That's a great resource. Another good one like that is https://creddle.io At the moment Creddle has awful support for exporting, making it almost useless to build a resume there, but if you choose to print as PDF then it's just as good as a PDF export.

Try this. I just launched it and the main goal was to help users who face the same problem like you do.

I am still testing it and it may be slow ... Let me know your feedback :-).

Just realized how out of date my CV is. Last update 2012.

Written in LaTeX, though I can't find my source at the moment... a little worrying.

EDIT: Forgot I came from US Academia, where CV is a long living document of your research and life work, not what we silly Americans call a Resume. Pardon me if this wasn't the kind of thing you were looking for.

I feel like I used to know the difference but now I don't. What do you folks do differently on a CV vs a resume?

What do you guys think of plain-text CVs?

I've seen this advocated in numerous places (including the link to Steve Yegge's blog in shoo's comment) but have never brought myself to send off a .txt file. I feel like some people could see it as lazy or rushed, despite having spent more time that I'd like to admit wording and rewording my CV.
