Most people are familiar with resumes in the .doc or .docx formats. I generally provide my clients with a .pdf version of their private-sector resumes and cover letters, in addition to the .doc version.
Two other resume formats exist, but I question their usefulness. One version is ASCII (plain text) and the other is HTML.
Has anyone ever had a need for a resume in ASCII (plain text) or HTML? If so, please explain the circumstances to me so I can determine if this service would be beneficial to my clients.
