This project is a LaTeX template to create a professional graphical resume. Honestly, it is inspired by many graphical resumes that I found on the web. All of the objects in the project are for the public benefit, so you can easily customize it to create your own template. Any contribution to improve this template would be greatly appreciated.
I put my own resume on this template as an example and you can add yours too. To do so, you can use following class and packages, which I will describe later:
- resume.cls
- resume.sty
- jresume.sty
- switch.sty
- sleekprogressbar.sty
This is a document class extended from article.cls, in which default vertical and horizontal spaces are discarded.
This package is a set of general layout commands to generate a professional graphical resume.
