Curricula Vitae / Résumés ⇒ Adding footnotes

[templateuser]

I seem to have problem adding footnotes (e.g., using \footnote command) to the sample, do you know what can be a problem? Thank you.

Hi Dan,

This is a bit of a hack but it works. Include this in the preamble: \usepackage{footmisc} then wherever you want a footnote use: \footnotemark[1]. This will print a small superscript footnote number at the position. Finally, just outside the block that the footnote is used in, you need this to specify the text for the footnote: \footnotetext[1]{some text}. For example:

Code: Select all

\subsection{Vocational}
\footnotetext[1]{some text}
\cventry{2012--Present}{1\textsuperscript{st}
Year Analyst}{\textsc{Lehman Brothers}}{Los Angeles}{}{Developed spreadsheets\footnotemark[1]
for risk analysis on exotic derivatives on a wide array of commodities
(ags, oils, precious and base metals), managed blotter and secondary trades
on structured notes, liaised with Middle Office, Sales and Structuring for bookkeeping.}

Cheers,
Vel

I am sorry but that does not seem to work for me!
Even if I take your example and copy & paste it into my cv...

Code: Select all

\cventry{TEXT}{TEXT}{TEXT\footnotemark[1]}{LOCATION}{}{TEXT}

if I want to add a footnote in a \cvline then it works fine

Code: Select all

\cvline{}{TEXT\footnotemark[1]}

How can I get a footnote into the cventry?

Hi,

I just noticed there was a missing closing bracket at the end of my example above. When I added \usepackage{footmisc} to the preamble and pasted in:

Code: Select all

\footnotetext[1]{some text}
\cventry{2012--Present}{1\textsuperscript{st}
Year Analyst}{\textsc{Lehman Brothers}}{Los Angeles}{}{Developed spreadsheets\footnotemark[1]
for risk analysis on exotic derivatives on a wide array of commodities
(ags, oils, precious and base metals), managed blotter and secondary trades
on structured notes, liaised with Middle Office, Sales and Structuring for bookkeeping.}

The footnote compiled as it is supposed to.

Cheers,
Vel
