How to include multiple jobs (promotion) from the same company?

[haozturk]

I could not figure out how to show multiple jobs (maybe promotion) from the same company? I think Linkedin has a neat structure for this purpose. Is there any opinion for this?

[Berkmann18]

The way I would do it by just having those several jobs even if the company/location is the same.

[haozturk]

Yes, it's a solution. But I'm trying not to exceed 1 page, therefore looking for a more compact form such as:

Company Name ........ Location Position 1 ................... Date for Position 1 Details for Position 1 Position 2 ................... Date for Position 2 Details for Position 2

I am playing with the code for this purpose. If I succeed, I will share.

[Berkmann18]

Ah, I see! That would be nice indeed.

Hi I would also really appreciate this addition if anyone knows how to do it?

[haozturk]

I guess the following command works for this purpose:

\newcommand*{\cventrytwopositions}[8]{%
  \vspace{-2.0mm}
  \setlength\tabcolsep{0pt}
  \setlength{\extrarowheight}{0pt}
  \begin{tabular*}{\textwidth}{@{\extracolsep{\fill}} L{\textwidth - 4.5cm} R{4.5cm}}
      \entrytitlestyle{#2} & \entrylocationstyle{#3} \\
      \entrypositionstyle{#6} & \entrydatestyle{#7} \\
      \multicolumn{2}{L{\textwidth}}{\descriptionstyle{#8}} \\
      \entrypositionstyle{#1} & \entrydatestyle{#4} \\
      \multicolumn{2}{L{\textwidth}}{\descriptionstyle{#5}}
  \end{tabular*}%
}

After adding this new command definition to awesome-cv.cls file, you can create an instance of it, for example in the experience.tex file. Here is the order of the fields:

\cventrytwopositions
    {Position1}
    {Company}
    {Location}
    {Date for position 1}
    {
      Details for position 1
    }
    {Position2}
    {Date for position 2}
    {
      Details for position 2
    }

Of course, order of the arguments could be altered. Let me know if this works or not, so that we can improve.

Not the most elegant solution, but I fixed it by simply adding two cventries without writing the organization and location of the oldest one. Something like

  \cventry
    {Job title after promotion} 
    {Corporation} 
    {Location} 
    {August 2019 - now}
    {
      \begin{cvitems} 
        \item {Responsibilities}
        \end{cvitems}
    }

  \cventry
    {Job title before your promotion}
    {} % Organization EMPTY
    {} % Location EMPTY
    {somewhere in the past - a while ago} % Date(s)
    {
      \begin{cvitems}
        \item {Old responsibilities}
        \end{cvitems}
    }

It does look good though, so I'll keep it like this.

I do the same as @mircoparello, but I defined a new command cvsubentry for this purpose:

% Sub-job entry - assumes the organization and place are specified in a preceding cventry
% Usage: \cvsubentry{<position>}{<date>}{<description>}
\newcommand*{\cvsubentry}[3]{\cventry{}{}{#1}{#2}{#3}}

Update: I just realized cvsubentry was already there, I just replaced it with a call to cventry with the necessary empty arguments. I need to clean up the local changes I've made and put together a proper PR :) Anyway, @haozturk I think the answer to your question is "that's what cvsubentry is for".

[Berkmann18]

I tried using @posquit0's cvsubentry thing as he used in https://github.com/posquit0/Awesome-CV/blob/master/examples/cv/experience.tex but XeLaTeX doesn't like that ("! Extra alignment tab has been changed to \cr. \endtemplate").

So for now, I'm doing the same as @mircoparello which looks good enough. On the other hand, doing that for the cvhonor thing doesn't seem viable (it looks terrible imo).

[adnan-azmat]

This works if you are promoted in the same location, what if I was promoted in the same company but to a different work location?

[OJFord]

@adnan-azmat This is how I solve it in my own CV:

% as \cventry, but squashed up to meet more recent role above; no company/location.
\newcommand{\cventryprevrole}[3]{
  \vspace{-3.0mm}
  \setlength\tabcolsep{0pt}
  \setlength{\extrarowheight}{0pt}
  \begin{tabular*}{\textwidth}{@{\extracolsep{\fill}} L{4.5cm} L{\textwidth - 4.5cm}}
    \entrydatestyle{#2} & \entrypositionstyle{#1} \\
    & \descriptionstyle{#3}
  \end{tabular*}
}

https://github.com/OJFord/curriculum-vitae/blob/0989831fb4810d1520bee67cbd93553458efafd5/cv.cls#L82-L91

This could easily be adapted to include (I deliberately removed it for my use) location. For comparison, here's \cventry: https://github.com/posquit0/Awesome-CV/blob/db809982227ba6f24f2d0ec1c4f3893e99db2f41/awesome-cv.cls#L657-L670

I've been meaning to read through others' suggestions & implementations here and elsewhere before coming up with something to include in Awesome-CV itself to address this.
