[UFO Chicago] Job Opportunity: Sun Solaris System Engineer needed in Schaumburg, IL

[Jesse Becker]

My resumes are PDF files.  Period.

Part of the reason that recruiters like to have Word docs
is that they will make additions to your resume before
sending it off to companies.  Usually, this is merely some
additional notes at the top of the page, but there is no
way to be sure.  I've personally had this happen, and had
recruiters complain that they couldn't edit the PDF.

<chuckle>  This is the first time that I've ever considered
some form of DRM to be useful. </chuckle>
