There are various modules to perform the export. As of now ox-moderncv, ox-altacv, ox-hugocv. Choose any or all that you prefer for install. I use use-package to manage the installation for example of ox-moderncv.

(use-package ox-moderncv
    :load-path "path_to_repository/org-cv/"
    :init (require 'ox-moderncv))

TITLE, AUTHOR and EMAIL are standard org options. But on TITLE you put your foreseen job.

#+TITLE: My dream job
#+AUTHOR: John Doe
#+email: [email protected]

#+ADDRESS: My Awesome crib
#+ADDRESS: Fantastic city -- Planet Earth
#+MOBILE: (+9) 87654321
#+HOMEPAGE: example.com

You can use org-modes hierarchical structure to describe your CV. To make a specific subtree an item describing an experience point (Job you have, degree you pursued, etc.) you use the org properties drawer and with the :CV_ENV: cventry property. You should also include the FROM and TO properties defining the span of the event, as LOCATION and EMPLOYER.

* Employement
** One job
:PROPERTIES:
:CV_ENV: cventry
:FROM:     <2014-09-01>
:TO:     <2017-12-07>
:LOCATION: a city, a country
:EMPLOYER: The employer
:END:

I write about awesome stuff I do.
** Other job
:PROPERTIES:
:CV_ENV: cventry
:FROM:     <2013-09-01>
:TO:     <2014-08-07>
:LOCATION: my city, your country
:EMPLOYER: The other employer
:END:

I write about awesome stuff I do.

* Other stuff I do

moderncv is a standard \(\LaTeX\) package that you can find in many of your latex distributions. I maintain a fork of it, to work with my use case at https://github.com/Titan-C/moderncv.git Feel free to use any or even your personal fork for your desired use case.

To configure the export for moderncv you need the addition options in your org file.

# CV theme - options include: 'casual' (default), 'classic', 'oldstyle' and 'banking'
#+CVSTYLE: banking
# CV color - options include: 'blue' (default), 'orange', 'green', 'red', 'purple', 'grey' and 'black'
#+CVCOLOR: green

When exporting you can call the following function to get the latex file.

(org-export-to-file 'moderncv "moderncv.tex")
(org-latex-compile "moderncv.tex")

AltaCV is another project to generate a CV, you will need to install it yourself. I maintain a fork too at https://github.com/Titan-C/AltaCV.git because I need extra features and I encourage to use this fork on the sections branch.

The style of this CV is more involved and you need some configuration in your org file to get it to work. First define the margins, the large margin to the right is to allow for a second column.

#+LATEX_HEADER: \geometry{left=1cm,right=9cm,marginparwidth=6.8cm,marginparsep=1.2cm,top=1.25cm,bottom=1.25cm}

Content on the right column has the same structure of a org file, but you need to enclose it in the \marginpar{} command as shown next.

#+latex: \marginpar{

When exporting you can call the following function to get the latex file.

(org-export-to-file 'altacv "altacv.tex")
(org-latex-compile "altacv.tex")

AwesomeCV is another LaTeX template for producing nice-looking CVs. In addition to the regular document attributes, the following are supported:

AwesomeCV supports a few additional types of environment types in CV_ENV, including cvemployer, cvskills, cvhonors and cvschool. Some of these support additional property fields:

All the supported values of CV_ENV are described below.

Enclose all the subheaders in a cventries environment. Subheaders can be of type cventry, cvschool, or cvemployer.

Enclose all the subheaders in a cvhonors environment. Subheaders must be of type cvhonor

Converts to a \cventry command. Supports attributes FROM, TO, DATE, EMPLOYER, LOCATION, RIGHT_IMG.

Converts to a \cvsubentry command. Supports attributes FROM, TO, DATE, LABEL RIGHT_IMG.

Converts to a \cventry with only the title line. Supports attributes FROM, TO, DATE and LOCATION.

Converts to a \cventry. The headline should contain the degree obtained, shown as the main title. Supports attributes LOCATION, SCHOOL, FROM, TO, DATE and RIGHT_IMG.

Converts to a \cvhonor command (must be inside a cvhonors headline). Supports attributes LOCATION, EMPLOYER (in this case EVENT or POSITION might be more semantically accurate, and can also be used), FROM, TO, DATE.

Converts to a \cvskills environment. The headline must contain a description list, which gets converted into a sequence of \cvskill commands, with the term as the skill title and the description as its contents.

To export, there is nothing fancy to keep track of, but as an example I exclude some tags during export.

(let ((org-export-exclude-tags '("noexport" "latexonly")))
     (org-export-to-file 'hugocv "hugocv.md"))
