Resumes have been on the verge of death for decades now, yet they are still with us. Yes, once you get in the door and get an interview the resume is worthless. Except it's not. The interviewer may need to run you past someone else. Will he/she reach for their carefully curated interview notes and pass those on? No, because they haven't written them up, or they can't be emailed, or the recruitment system is rubbish or [some reason]. But the resume is still there, a nice Word doc or pdf that can be easily emailed around. Source: too many years building recruitment systems.
