Overleaf resume: change employment dates on your resume

Update an end date, mark a job as current or fix a start month. This works on the PDF Overleaf exported. Small fixes to bullets, dates and links can be made in the PDF with kerning kept. Large rewrites are cleaner in the source.

How Overleaf writes resume PDFs

  • • pdfTeX embeds Type1 fonts such as Computer Modern or Latin Modern.
  • • Kerning and ligatures are written into each line.
  • • Resume classes draw rules and align dates with precise spacing.

What happens to the rest of your resume

  • • Right aligned dates grow to the left, so the column stays straight.
  • • The date keeps its font and colour.

Questions people ask

+Can I write Present instead of an end date?

Yes. Type Present; letters not yet in the file come from the complete font, and for fonts that are not open you are asked first.

+Is it better to edit in Overleaf?

If you still have the Overleaf version and a lot to change, yes. For a quick fix to the PDF you already sent, editing the PDF is faster.
