Show HN: Convert your LinkedIn profile to a resume

Why isn't there an XML or JSON format widely used for CVs? It would make sifting through CVs so much easier, plus it would make CVEO (CV engine optimization) a thing.

Is this better than the "save to pdf" feature on your profile in LinkedIn?

Looks interesting and could not have come at a more convenient time for me (.. unfortunetaly). I’ll give it a try. Thanks

Quick extraction, nice resume formatting and free which is cool. I know LinkedIn depreciated their free resume builder.

Neat, but how does it differ from other tools out there? e.g. <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.kickresume.com&#x2F;en&#x2F;linkedin-resume-builder&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.kickresume.com&#x2F;en&#x2F;linkedin-resume-builder&#x2F;</a>

Nice work - wish this was around a couple of years ago when I got out of uni. Keep it up.

Does anyone still enjoy writing, rewriting and designing their own CV by hand, for example using Latex? Shouldn&#x27;t it be a signature, a testament to your sense of individualism and craftsmanship?

It froze for me. Stuck on this screen: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;imgur.com&#x2F;a&#x2F;CH30zoK" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;imgur.com&#x2F;a&#x2F;CH30zoK</a>

i’ve been quietly on the job market the last month or so, and i’ve been kind of surprised at the number of recruiters who insist they need an “actual resume” instead of linkedin profile, which honestly has been my resume for about 15 years now. i finally dropped a PDF of my profile into claude and got a resume condensed, but i have a hard time seeing the advantage in this day and age.

I need the exact opposite direction. It&#x27;s so incredibly tedious to populate LinkedIn.

No one is concerned this sends your LinkedIn ID and PDF to their own server to &quot;generate&quot; the PDF? Surely that data is being stored (and probably sold).<p>Can you share the github&#x2F;sourcecode for the extension or unminify it? Code shouldn&#x27;t be minified in V3 extensions anyway.

this looks nice! i did try to sign up for standard a few times and each time i get an infinite loading screen after hitting &#x27;complete purchase&#x27;

I&#x27;ll try it.

This looks like a superb tool.
