Unless you're trying to hire geeks who can fit in to a standard office environment without weird platform demands. In which case, insist on .docx.

- disgruntledphd2 14y agoWell, yes and no. I write everything either in LaTeX or markdown these days, but its ridiculously simple to output either of these formats to docx, so normally that's what I do. I'll always send them the PDF version of my resume first though, as good typography can make you look better. If a job requires me to write in Word throughout the day, that's a job I don't want (in fact, writing grant proposals in Word was one of the most frustrating things about working in adeademia).
