I've been using LaTeX for my resume since college. I always get compliments on how my resume is so pleasant to look at, stands out because it's not the same template as everyone else, etc. A lot of recruiters ask me where to get the Word template for it.
But the greatest joy I get is when people email me about how they used my TeX source to make their resume and suddenly got a lot more interest.
And the most hilarious was when I got a resume once that looked suspiciously like my own, and when I asked them about it in the interview, they told me the copied one from the internet and I pointed out that they had copied mine! We both had a good laugh. I honestly don't remember if I hired them or not.
If anyone wants a copy of my resume TeX source, let me know (contact info in profile).
