Two profile-accuracy rules for the CV guide. **In-progress qualifications.** A bare year range is not enough: an entry reading 2025-2026, seen partway through 2026, reads as a finished degree, because a skimming reader treats a closed range as closed. A profile statement saying "currently completing" does not fix it - the education entry is where a reader checks the credential, so it has to stand alone. Claiming a credential not yet held is discovered at transcript or reference check rather than at interview, and it costs nothing to prevent. Adds the LaTeX form and a check that the profile statement, education entry and any availability note agree on one completion date. **Tenure against visible output.** A two-year role represented by a single project reads as low output whether or not that is fair; the reader cannot know what filled the time, so they guess. Hits career changers, long-cycle work (industrial, clinical, research) and anyone kept on a single account. Three honest fixes in preference order - surface more real work, make the phases within the role explicit, name what made the cycle long - and an explicit prohibition on the two dishonest ones: never pad with invented projects, never quietly shorten employment dates. Both are discoverable and worse than the perception problem. If the ratio survives the fixes the interview question is coming, so the answer belongs in interview prep rather than improvised. framework_version 1.2.0 -> 1.3.0.
