Business Résumé

A simple and easy to use Typst template for your résumé and cover letter

Screenshots

See the example folder for PDFs generated with this template.

Requirements

You just need to install Typst and then you are ready to go.

Usage

The template, résumé and cover letter are plain text files, so you can use your favorite text editor to modify them.

To generate the PDF files, open a terminal in the current directory and run typst compile FILE.typ.

You can also run typst watch FILE.typ to re-generate the PDF at every change.

Résumé

Open the resume.typ file and edit the #header with your information. You can omit some entries if you don't want to show them. If you don't want the image to appear, set small: false in the header.

You can separate different sections with two equal signs: == Education.

Inside each section, add some #entry specifying:

  1. organization,
  2. title,
  3. location,
  4. begin date,
  5. end date,
  6. list of achievements

Cover letter

Open the resume.typ file and copy the same #header from your résumé. Set small: false to not make the image appear.

Write the letter separating paragraphs with empty lines between them.

Close the letter with your name and optionally a signature image.

Template

Refer to the Typst Documentation to customize the template file business.typ.
