Like the rest, I picked straight LaTeX, as it just felt like forcing Org to
do something unnatural, in my opinion. At least, if you get into any sort
of formatting stuff, it just didn't feel right. Here's some other mailing
list discussions if you haven't run into them:
- https://www.mail-archive.com/emacs-orgmode@gnu.org/msg37000.html
- http://web.archiveorange.com/archive/v/Fv8aAUnm6O4rHfVY6k0p

And a github repo:
- https://github.com/fasheng/fsh-orgmode-latex-cv

I still have a bookmarks folder in Chromium from when I was hunting around.
Here are the ones that, apparently, I found worth to make the Ctrl+D cut
for future reference if you're interested

I haven't updated mine since 2011, when I updated it for my current job. I
went with an internal CV so that I could list accomplishments that would be
considered confidential (patent applications, internal reports, etc.). I
did create a dummy version, which I've attached (tex/pdf). Re-looking at
it, I can't decide if I still like it or not. At the time, I was really
happy with it as my first LaTeX CV :) I'd also probably consider it a
hybrid CV/resume -- I liked describe some of my previous job
responsibilities, while including papers/presentations/etc.


Good luck!
John
