Dear Nick, thanks again for your work!
I am currently editing my cv and, like @pbrazda, I believe it would be great to be able to show that a position is a current position. I thought of something like "2017-Present" or "2017-". At the moment, I simply enter "2017-2020", but it looks like the position ended in 2020.
Best, Antoine
Hi @AntoineSoetewey and @pbrazda ,
This should be relatively straight forward. Let me have a look at it in the next day or so and get back to you. Right now the dates are kept as dates to allow sorting, but I think adding a simple "present"
marker should be straightfoward to implement and obviously useful
Hi @AntoineSoetewey and @pbrazda ,
Check out what I've done on the branch current_end_date
. Here's the diff for the changes.
Basically, now if you set the end
column of your data to be either empty or "{C,c}urrent"
or "{N/n}ow"
, it is indicated as such in the report. If you leave it empty the value written is "Current". Here's an example of my CV done with this. In this example, I left the end date for my first education and research experience entries empty.
it's perfect! thanks a lot
Hi!
Thank you for compiling this!
While trying to play with it and add my details a question came up: How shall I put an event or position into positions.csv if it is still running, so it has no 'end' date. For example; I was hired 2015-2017 at one Uni, and moved to another one (still there), so that is 2017- . In this case the first one will be ranked first, and the actually running one would be ranked second (but it should be the other way around).
Maybe other parameters are used for the ranking if the end date is not given?
Do you have any tips to go around this?
Thanks!
Peter
