Would be great to see LinkedIn API input, in case people want to interact with [insult here] that see your LinkedIn, but 'want you to send them a CV'.

You'd need an interface more robust than the console and json at that point, right? In order to select which aspects of your LI profile are appropriate for which level? But I agree it's probably a good next step.

I was semi-hoping, that "résumé validation" would validate it against things like expected buzzword frequency, HR stopwords and so on. The important things, you know.

Heh, well, it is on GitHub, and there is a history of merged PRs: https://github.com/hacksalot/HackMyResume/pulls?utf8=%E2%9C%...

I was all set to roll my eyes about another json/markdown/whatever resume tool, but just seeing the console screenshot[0] made me rethink that. [0] https://github.com/hacksalot/HackMyResume/blob/master/assets...

What is it that caught your attention? The merging?

There is just another YAML-to-TEX-to-PDF Resume generator I created a while ago: https://github.com/QuteBits/resume_42

Even back then there were plenty of Resume generators. What still haunts these tools is a too complex environment setup and unappealing template designs.
