About The Resume
View the live version of the resume.
I thought it would be fun and useful to make an HTML
version of my resume so that I could go into more detail about particular subjects than in the PDF
resume I would typically submit during job applications. Fortunately, quarto
pandoc
markdown into both formats and is incredibly extensible using filters. Using quarto
and some pandoc
filters, I made an interactive resume viewable within the browser that aims to guide the view using nice graphics.
Advantages of Multiple Formats
For the Reader
- It is a better experience to look through a website than to read another
PDF
. Styling and interactivity of websites is not nearly as limited as aPDF
document. - It provides an immediate example of my skills in something relevent to software.
- A link to the most recent version of my resume is provided in all
PDF
resumes.
For My Self
- Version control.
- Integration into something I’d be working on frequently.
- Editing in my favorite tool
nvim
instead of overleaf. - If I do not have my computer on hand, I can just send somebody a link instead of emailing them a
PDF
.
