My Data Driven CV

What

This CV is created using the R Package vitae


Curriculum Vitae

a short account of one's career and qualifications prepared typically by an applicant for a position

--- Merriam Webster's Dictionary


Why

Automation eases how much manual work needs to be performed on any particular task. As developers, programmers, software engineers, etc. our skills are put to good use when we automate manual work for the betterment of others, and ourselves.

I needed a CV that i can easily update, gets out of my way, and is easily accessible when i need it.

How

This document utilizes RMarkdown and is compiled through pandoc.

I use various other packages with vitae such as here, tibble, glue, and magrittr (for the pipe %>%)

With RStudio i read in my tribbles contained in the data.r script containing all my data, then using the vitae functions and glue string literals, i create the document itself.

Data exists in in the data.r file in the r/ directory and is added to the CV when the script is sourced by the RMarkdown document in the main directory.

The header portion of the document is comprised in the YAML portion of the RMarkdown document.
