Since co-op, I realized that it would be very nice to be able to customize
my résumé quickly for different employers, then I discovered the ifthen
package. I've created a sort of template to make it easy to create
conditional résumés. I've put it at
http://www.eng.uwaterloo.ca/~apmasell/resume.php

I'm not going to be around, but I'd love any comments and constructive
criticism :-) . I know it's lacking functionality and has a some bugs.

All though this all might be moot if CECS switches to the online résumé
system.

You just gotta wonder how Twain and Hemmingway managed to get along with
only one font?

That sounds cool. I have a Latex template which works great for me.
Check it out if you're interested:

I've been looking for something like "ifthen" for a long time. I will
certainly check it out. I think if I combine ifthen with my template
that will make it even better.

Forgive the lateness, I've been on vacation.

I am. I like yours. The shaded boxes are a nice touch. I may have to steal
some of your magin commands. If I wasn't so lazy (which I am) I'd do
something like the prosper package where you can specify the theme you
want. Except, I am lazy and busy. :-)

That ifthen package is one of the best packages available, IMHO.

But, from what I was told by my CECS co-ordiantor is that we will have
somekind of cut-and-paste-webform-textbox-type-thing in ACCESS, so you're
résumé won't matter as such.

To err is human, to forgive, beyond the scope of the Operating System.
