[Tex/LaTex] LaTex Awesome CV – indented subentry

Question

i am in a rotational program and i want to separate my singular position into 3 subgroups (each with their own bullet points) under work experience as shown in this photo.

i haven't the slightest idea how to do this in awesome-cv. doesn't matter how hacky it is!

the template is found here: https://www.overleaf.com/latex/templates/awesome-cv/dfnvtnhzhhbm
and i haven't made any changes to the awesome-cv.cls file.

made the edits @whatisit posted below. gave the following output:

only slight changes i'd like to see to this- how do i make the rotation headings be styled the same as the the other position titles (where it says "associate" & "intern"), and finally, i still want the default bullets as shown under the second company, instead of dashes.

Answer 1

Another possibility, if you want to retain the general style in the cventries is to just put a \begin{itemize}...\end{itemize} block inside and remove the bullets from the cventries items

In the experience.tex file, replace everything between and including the \begin{cventries}...\end{cventries} stuff with this:

\begin{cventries}
%---------------------------------------------------------
  \cventry
    {Rotational Program Associate} % Job title
    {Some Corp.} % Organization
    {City, Country} % Location
    {Jan. 2016 - PRESENT} % Date(s)
    {
      \begin{cvitems} % Description(s) of tasks/responsibilities
        \item[] {1st rotation
            \begin{itemize} % Description(s) of tasks/responsibilities
                \item {rotation task 1}
                \item {rotation task 2}
                \item {rotation task 3}
              \end{itemize}}
        \item[] {2nd rotation
            \begin{itemize} % Description(s) of tasks/responsibilities
                \item {rotation task 1}
                \item {rotation task 2}
                \item {rotation task 3}
              \end{itemize}}
        \item[] {3rd rotation
            \begin{itemize} % Description(s) of tasks/responsibilities
                \item {rotation task 1}
                \item {rotation task 2}
                \item {rotation task 3}
              \end{itemize}}
      \end{cvitems}
    }
%---------------------------------------------------------
\end{cventries}

The \item[] removes bullets from those items. Remove [] if you want bullets again.

The result looks like this:

VERSION 2:

The job position is wrapped in \entrypositionstyle{...}, as defined by the awesome-cv.cls. So, you can wrap the sub-position titles inside of it. For example, \entrypositionstyle{1st rotation} in the original answer or \entrypositionstyle{Business Analyst Rotation} in the OP edit.

If you prefer something easier to remember, you could \let\jobstyle\entrypositionstyle in the preamble (i.e. above \begin{document} in resume.tex). Then, use \jobstyle{Business Analyst Rotation} instead.

The bullet issue is because you are two levels deep, instead of only one level deep. Before the job/tasks list, you can \renewcommand{\labelitemii}{\bullet} to force the second level to have bullets also, instead of dashes.

The updates look like this. I kept the third job/task without the formatting to provide comparison.

resume.tex

\let\jobstyle\entrypositionstyle

\begin{document}

experience.tex

\begin{cventries}
%---------------------------------------------------------
  \cventry
    {Rotational Program Associate} % Job title
    {Some Corp.} % Organization
    {City, Country} % Location
    {Jan. 2016 - PRESENT} % Date(s)
    {\renewcommand{\labelitemii}{\bullet}
      \begin{cvitems} % Description(s) of tasks/responsibilities
        \item[] {\jobstyle{1st rotation} %VERSION ONE (requires resume.tex change)
            \begin{itemize} % Description(s) of tasks/responsibilities
                \item {rotation task 1}
                \item {rotation task 2}
                \item {rotation task 3}
              \end{itemize}}
        \item[] {\entrypositionstyle{2nd rotation} %VERSION ONE (does NOT require resume.tex change)
            \begin{itemize} % Description(s) of tasks/responsibilities
                \item {rotation task 1}
                \item {rotation task 2}
                \item {rotation task 3}
              \end{itemize}}
        \item[] {3rd rotation
            \begin{itemize} % Description(s) of tasks/responsibilities
                \item {rotation task 1}
                \item {rotation task 2}
                \item {rotation task 3}
              \end{itemize}}
      \end{cvitems}
    }
%---------------------------------------------------------
\end{cventries}
...

Result looks like this:

Note that \renewcommand{\labelitemii}{\bullet} in the location that I place it will not affect other second-level bullets. If you want all second-level bullets to change for the entire resume, move \renewcommand{\labelitemii}{\bullet} to resume.tex above \begin{document}.
