The Jobs Application

Beautiful & simple resume generation. Salt, Pepper, and Plumeria templates, shown using the same resume. Turn your Markdown into a polished resume. Pick a design, make it yours, and export a one-page PDF—all inside Obsidian.

Install

  1. Put the release's resume-pdf folder in your vault's .obsidian/plugins/ folder.
  2. Restart Obsidian.
  3. Enable The Jobs Application in Settings → Community plugins.

Use

Open a resume note and click The Jobs Application in its header.

Edit your Markdown beside a live preview. Choose Salt, Pepper, or Plumeria. All three use the same Markdown; switching templates changes the layout.

Click New resume for an example, or Save PDF to export.

  • Error: more than one page. Shorten the resume to export.
  • Warning: below the minimum page fill, adjustable in settings.
  • Ready: content fills the page.

Choose an accent color for Salt or Plumeria. Your choice is saved.
