Been reading alot recently about HR-XML Resumes and the hResume microformat especially on the HR-XML blog (see references). I was interested in what the differences between them were and what use cases might be most beneficial to each. As it turns out, the differences were minimal in terms of semantics, at least for the most often used resume fields of data.
I then got a wild hair and created an XSLT to transform an HR-XML Resume into an html document with the hResume microformat embedded in it. (The best way to learn something is to use it for real, right?) It really wasn't hard at all. First, I went to the http://hresume.weblogswork.com/hresumecreator/ tool to create a resume for myself using hResume. I used it as a model. I made no attempt to "pretty it up" as that was not the point. I took the formatting that they used without change. Then I took an HR-XML resume of myself and began to do the transform.
Here is the result of the transform.
