Companies don't seem to treat it like an important document. I can't tell you how many times an interviewer seemed to be reading my resume for the very first t

  As the interviewer, in several places I've worked, I'm usually handed the resume 10 minutes before the interview along with a couple of questions my manager wants me to ask. By that point, it's gone through HR, managers, etc. You're getting hired if you can get past me and whomever I'm interviewing with. There was even one time they forgot to give me the resume... that was probably the funniest interview ever. They got the job too.

  On the flip side, I do technical interviews (I am new to it though), and I spend about half an hour preparing for an interview including going through the CV that made it to me (and making notes/preparing questions) and researching the candidate based on what I see in it (e.g following links, etc)

    I do the same thing. The CV is typically made available to me a couple of days before the interview, and I usually take a look at it the day before. Obviously I can't really know how carefully it gets scanned before they decide to arrange the technical interview (which is where I step in).
