Curricula Vitae / Résumés ⇒ Twenty Seconds Curriculum Vitae

Hi guys!

I am struggling with Twenty Seconds CV template. I want to remove the section SKILLS (the skills bar section and the written one too). If I simply delete it, the caption SKILLS stays there and the "(*) (The skills scale from 0 to 6)" also. How do I totally remove it? I want to have only "about me" in this part.

Second thing: I want all other sections like interests, education, experience etc all in blue colour (cos the gray is nearly invisible!)

I will be very grateful for your fast recommendations!!

Kind regards, Zuzana

Hi Zuzana,

welcome to the forum!

You can find the skills section in the .cls file. Since it's not good to edit a .cls class file directly, you could put this change to your preamble in template.tex:

Code: Select all

\renewcommand{\makeprofile}{
	\begin{tikzpicture}[remember picture,overlay]
   		\node [rectangle, fill=sidecolor, anchor=north, minimum width=9cm, minimum height=\paperheight+1cm] (box) at (-5cm,0.5cm){};
	\end{tikzpicture}

	%------------------------------------------------

	\begin{textblock}{6}(0.5, 0.2)
			
		%------------------------------------------------
		
		\ifthenelse{\equal{\profilepic}{}}{}{
			\begin{center}
				\begin{tikzpicture}[x=\imagescale,y=-\imagescale]
					\clip (600/2, 567/2) circle (567/2);
					\node[anchor=north west, inner sep=0pt, outer sep=0pt] at (0,0) {\includegraphics[width=\imagewidth]{\profilepic}};
				\end{tikzpicture}
			\end{center}
		}

		%------------------------------------------------

		{\Huge\color{mainblue}\cvname}

		%------------------------------------------------

		{\Large\color{black!80}\cvjobtitle}

		%------------------------------------------------

		\renewcommand{\arraystretch}{1.6}
		\begin{tabular}{p{0.5cm} @{\hskip 0.5cm}p{5cm}}
			\ifthenelse{\equal{\cvdate}{}}{}{\textsc{\Large\icon{\Info}} & \cvdate\\}
			\ifthenelse{\equal{\cvaddress}{}}{}{\textsc{\Large\icon{\Letter}} & \cvaddress\\}
			\ifthenelse{\equal{\cvnumberphone}{}}{}{\textsc{\Large\icon{\Telefon}} & \cvnumberphone\\}
			\ifthenelse{\equal{\cvsite}{}}{}{\textsc{\Large\icon{\Mundus}} & \cvsite\\}
			\ifthenelse{\equal{\cvmail}{}}{}{\textsc{\large\icon{@}} & \href{mailto:\cvmail}{\cvmail}}
		\end{tabular}

		%------------------------------------------------
		
		\ifthenelse{\equal{\aboutme}{}}{}{
			\profilesection{About me}
			\begin{flushleft}
				\aboutme
			\end{flushleft}
		}

		%------------------------------------------------
			
	\end{textblock}
}

A quick hack is making maingray to be the same as the mainblue color, in the preamble of template.tex:

\definecolor{maingray}{HTML}{0E5484}
