It would be ideal if we could create an xml resume schema (based on one of the two existing works), and then write tools to generate it into whatever format is desired: semantic xhtml, microformat hCard, proprietary XML (ie - monster.com xml).<br />
<br />
==Application of current microformats==<br />
See [[resume-formats]] for a description of common résumé elements.<br />
<br />
===Contact===<br />
The contact info block of a résumé could be expressed with an [[hcard]].<br />
<br />
===Education===<br />
Educational experience could be expressed as a list of [[hcalendar|hcalendars]]. The rationale is that education can be viewed as a long-running event- it would be easy to reuse the vocabulary from [[hcalendar]] for describing events.<br />
<br />
===Work Experience===<br />
Just like Education, work experience could be expressed as a list of [[hcalendar|hcalendars]].<br />
<br />
Additionally, within a particular work experience, the list of job titles could be expressed as [[hcard|hcards]].<br />
<br />
===Skills===<br />
Skills could be expressed as tags, using [[rel-tag|relTag]].<br />
<br />
=== Publications ===<br />
Any publications, presentations, or other works could be represented buy a [[cite-formats|citation microformat]]<br />
<br />
===References===<br />
References could be expressed as a list of [[hcard|hcards]], though web-based résumés tend to be light on using references.<br />
<br />
=== endorsements ===<br />
LinkedIn allows users to endorse others' resumes. This functionality could be capture with [[vote-links]].<br />

==Other Résumé Formats==<br />
