Automatic Resume/CV From LaTex Template
After I got my last job I came across a reddit post mentioning https://github.com/posquit0/Awesome-CV and I decided to try and get it setup. I had it all working great and then promptly forgot about it while getting my deep into my new job. Periodically, we have to update our resumes for regulatory reasons and I got an email from HR that my resume was out of date and needed updating. I remembered about my Awesome-CV repo and decided to keep that up to date as well. It was then that I discovered that all the repos I was using were out of date and did not work anymore. I had to update the docker-texlive-thin docker image to use ubuntu 23.10 instead of 22.10, which required publishing my own docker-texlive-thin image to dockerhub. Then I had to update the awesome-cv-action repo to use this new docker image, which required forking that repo and publishing my own awesome-cv-action github action. Then I was able to update my Awesome-CV repo to use my new action and I finally got a new resume uploaded as an artifact. So feel free to use my new docker image and github action and open issues on it if it gets out of date again.
In looking for where I originally found the Awesome-CV repo, I came across this reddit post that listed several other LaTex resume templates so I thought it could be useful for others: https://www.reddit.com/r/cscareerquestionsCAD/comments/uufe0n/using_latex_resume_template_helped_me_a_lot/
