The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
Well, as a High Lord of Anal Retentiveness, my resume is available via
my Web site in no less than four, that's right, four formats. These
include:
* MS Word
* PDF
* Text-only
* HTML
Mostly, when applying for jobs, I get requests for the MS Word resume. I
guess if I was tracking stats on my site (which I plan to get around to
sometime soon), I could see which was most popular, but I haven't yet.
Thanks. DB.
