Vimtex doesn't work with biber, bibtex, biblatex, nor cite when using .bib file

I keep getting errors such as

cv.tex|65 warning| LaTeX Warning: Citation 'severo2019ward2icu' on page 2 undefined on input line 65.
cv.tex|66 warning| LaTeX Warning: Empty bibliography on input line 66.
cv.tex|| LaTeX Warning: There were undefined references.
cv.tex|| Package biblatex Warning: Please (re)run Biber on the file: cv

on this project, more specifically, this tex and bib files.

my init.vim is

Yes, it does (at least for me). Can you add a _minimal_ TeX file, too?

It does work.

I keep getting errors such as ...

I suspect you get the same errors if you compile your document from the terminal.

on this project, more specifically, this tex and bib files.

I've cloned your files and I have no problem compiling them.

my init.vim is ...

Some comments:

" I think this plugin will interfere with vimtex folding. Perhaps you want to
" disable vimtex folding with "let g:vimtex_fold_enable = 0"?
Plug 'matze/vim-tex-fold'

" This option does not exist. Check vimtex docs for more info.
let g:vimtex_latexmk_continuous = 1

" This is not necessary, as it is set automatically
let g:vimtex_compiler_progname = 'nvr'

As suggested by @clason: Please provide minimal latex files and a minmal vimrc file necessary to reproduce your problem. Note also that the .latexmkrc file may be relevant.

Sorry, I made a mistake. It looks like \nofiles in res.cls was blocking the creation of cv.aux (which, as far as I know, is needed by bibtex and biber backends).

@clason @lervag I'm not sure why, but when I ran latexmk directly in my terminal the cv.aux file was created.

I'm sorry to bother you! Thanks for the patience.

No problem, happy to hear it works now! :)

Note, when something doesn't work, I often tend to first clean all aux files, then recompile. This may sometimes be necessary for the compilation to work correctly.
