Make the Best of Your CV Formatting with LaTeX and Overleaf
IN PERSON
LaTeX is a high-quality typesetting system; it includes features designed to produce technical and scientific documentation and it is widely used in the scientific domain to manage and write research papers. You can also use LaTeX to typeset a professional-looking CV, focus on your content and worry less about formatting. In this workshop, attendees will be able to play with the "moderncv" or "resume" class in LaTeX and create their own CV from a wide range of provided templates.
This is an intermediate level course. Intermediate sessions explore specific aspects of the method (libraries, tools etc.) and offer a more in-depth understanding of the course topics, without introducing the basics. Some knowledge on how to use LaTeX and Overleaf systems is required to be able to follow the content. If you want to refresh your memory you can have a look to these tutorials https://www.overleaf.com/learn
