I am using the resume.cls from this template: https://www.overleaf.com/articles/sharanya-anands-cv/fyvvdpdxthyc
I want to decrease the vertical spacing before the start of each list, but have consulted numerous Stack Exchange threads whose solutions do not seem to work in this case.
Here is a snippet of the code that I am using:
\documentclass{resume} % Use the custom resume.cls style
\usepackage{fontawesome}
\usepackage[symbol]{footmisc}
\usepackage{hyperref}
\usepackage{newcent}
\usepackage[left=0.4 in,top=0.4in,right=0.4 in,bottom=0.4in, includefoot]{geometry} % Document margins
\newcommand{\tab}[1]{\hspace{.2667\textwidth}\rlap{#1}}
\newcommand{\itab}[1]{\hspace{0em}\rlap{#1}}
%From previous Stack Exchange threads
\usepackage{enumitem}
\setlist[itemize]{topsep=0pt}
\begin{document}
\begin{rSection}{Sample}
blah blah blah
\begin{itemize} \itemsep -0.5em
\item first item
\item second item
\end{itemize}
\end{rSection}
\end{document}
I would like the distance between the "blah blah blah" line to be decreased before the first item block.
I greatly appreciate any help you can provide in this process. Thank you!
topsep=0pt
