I created my resume in notepad with no formatting. It has served me well. With most job applications now demanding you fill out proprietary forms, I usually have to cut and paste…

This is one of those things that's so useful it's a wonder it isn't more common. Every job site, resume builder & such should have this. Same goes for business plans, marketing…
