To clarify, I meant that when looking for a job it is a pain to retype your resume multiple times (because having a human look at candidates apparently isn't a thing, especially at larger organizations). Having a standard format, supported by many employers would have made the process much easier. My resume is set up as http://www.microformats.org/wiki/hresume http://www.microformats.org/wiki/hresume and noöne supports that, and it's been around for a while.
