A close friend of mine's been doing some job hunting in a non-technical field. He was just telling me the other day how just about every place where he sent his PDF resume replied by asking him to resend it in Word.
- mixmastamyk 11y agoI have not sent a resume out in Word format since perhaps 1995, and it was only once or twice even at that time.

- mixmastamyk 11y agoIn what world does it take more technical knowledge to use a pdf instead of a doc? It doesn't--pdf is easier to use for everyone except someone who wants to modify the resume without your knowledge. If a recruiter asks for word, say simply "I don't own Word, sorry."
