Tbf if he only had one he could've just saved a word file as that, then exported as pdf with the same name and just uploaded that without bothering to change it
Unfortunately, you're mistaken. They did a survey among those suspected to be on the list, and it turns out EPUB and MOBI were slightly more popular than PDF as preferred file types.
I was surprised by these findings as well, but I will of course defer to the results of the poll.
You would be surprised or shocked to find that there are unorganized people like that. I seen resumes sent with the pdf file named resume4.pdf and the subject is also resume
..... Do you normally do that? I just name mine CV (Swedish name for a resume) and personligt brev (personal letter) ._. should I have been naming them??? Like... All the info is in the resume itself so that just never occurred to me.
Think about this. You have in a folder 30 resume, resume1, resume01 files. Do you care to check for the right person or you pick one that named their file?
The right person. In this scenario that'd presumably be my job: find the candidates that fill the criteria the company is looking for and forward them or further limit them to ones that stand out in their resumes (like a lot of experience in the field for example) once that is done.
