There is a LaTeX class mimicking Europass. I used to use it. I find Europass ugly and disturbing/hard to read, though. Anyhow, creating a cv_barebone.org should not be too hard. –Rasmus -- Sent from my Emacs

I used Org for mine. http://www.adamsinfoserv.com/AISTWiki/pub/AIS/Resume/AdamsRussellPublicBio.pdf I even have it split into parts with dynamic includes. Org/Latex worked great. Thanks.

I did a sub-tree export to LaTeX using these settings: ** Curriculum Vitae :PROPERTIES: :EXPORT_FILE_NAME: suvayu_cv.pdf :EXPORT_TITLE: Curriculum Vitae :EXPORT_AUTHOR: Suvayu Ali :CATEGORY: cv :END: #+OPTIONS: H:2 num:nil toc:nil TeX:t > HTH, > Puneeth -- Suvayu Open source is the future.

I have recently started using Org-mode for my Resume [1]. I have created a custom LaTeX stylesheet, that I use, for the LaTeX export. HTH, Puneeth [1] - https://github.com/punchagan/resume

I'm not using Org for resumes, but yes, I would love to see some good CSS for the HTML export and some good style.xml for the ODT export... Crossing fingers, -- Bastien

I think the first step (or one of the first steps) is to create (or identify) a template that you are happy about. If you post a sample resume, I will be more than happy to use it as a use-case and robustify applying of styles with org-odt exporter. Jambunathan K.
