This repository offers a collection of simple yet effective résumé templates built using basic LaTeX commands. The BASE ROVER template, for instance, requires only about 10 lines of code to set up a clean and minimal résumé format. Unlike other templates that rely on custom résumé classes — forcing you to learn new commands and options — these templates are designed to be straightforward and easy to use.
Creating a one-page résumé shouldn't require 500+ lines of code filled with custom commands that are difficult to modify or troubleshoot. Frustrated by the complexity and lack of simplicity in existing templates, I set out to design a clean and intuitive solution. This template is built with basic design principles in mind like Hierarchy, Repetition, and Alignment to ensure a professional and visually appealing result without unnecessary complexity.
The following code block serves as the foundational structure for each entry in your résumé.
\subsection{Designation, Duration}
\subsubsection{Company, Location}
\begin{itemize}
\item Bullet points
\item tailored to the
\item job description.
\end{itemize}| Base Rover Template | Star Rover Template |

Package hyperref Warning:
This occurs because hyperref package creates clickable texts for both internal and external links. When generating a PDF, certain elements like bookmarks, metadata, and hyperlinks are encoded as PDF strings. Since \section{}, \subsection{} etc. are used in the Table of contents (i.e. bookmarks), certain LaTeX commands (like \hfill) or control sequences doesn't make sense in this context.
When hyperref encounters the \hfill command while processing a piece of text that needs to be converted into a PDF string, it cannot include this command in the output PDF string. As a result, it removes the command and issues a warning to notify you of this action.
We can circumvents this issue by disabling the creation of bookmarks as shown below.
\usepackage[bookmarks=false]{hyperref}Caution
To avoid generating warnings, the bookmarks option in the hyperref package must be set during package loading with \usepackage[bookmarks=false]{hyperref}. You can use \hypersetup{} for everything else.
