Get started

The class h-resume is a root class name that indicates the presence of an h-resume.

See microformats2-parsing to learn more about property classnames.

Properties

h-resume properties, inside an element with class h-resume:

  • p-name - brief name of the resume
  • p-summary - overview of qualifications and objectives
  • p-contact - current contact info in an h-card
  • p-education - an education h-event event, years, embedded h-card of the school, location.
    Main article: h-event
    Main article: h-card
  • p-experience - a job or other professional experience h-event event, years, embedded h-card of the organization, location, job-title.
    Main article: h-event
    Main article: h-card
  • p-skill - a skill or ability, optionally including level and/or duration of experience
  • p-affiliation - an affiliation with an h-card organization

All properties are optional.

Status

h-resume is a microformats.org draft specification. Public discussion on h-resume takes place on h-resume-feedback and the #microformats irc channel on irc.freenode.net.

h-resume is ready to use and implemented in the wild, but for backwards compatibility you should also mark h-resumes up with classic hResume classnames.

Property Details

(stub, add any property explanations here)

p-skill has a proposed expansion into competency with explicit summary, rating and/or duration components. Based on existing real world adoption, we should consider an h-skill vocabulary with p-name, p-rating, and dt-duration properties.

Parser Compatibility

Microformats parsers SHOULD detect the following root class name and property names. A microformats2 parser may use existing microformats parsers to extract these properties. If an "h-resume" is found, don't look for an "hresume" on the same element.

compat root class name: hresume
properties: (parsed as p- plain text unless otherwise specified)

  • summary
  • contact - including compat root vcard in the absence of h-card
  • education - including compat root vevent in the absence of h-event
  • experience - including compat root vevent in the absence of h-event
  • skill
  • affiliation - including compat root vcard in the absence of h-card

Background

h-resume is based on the existing hResume specification.
