Fair enough.
Your loss, desu.
ok
I can see that being fair enough in some cases. Not all companies can actually afford straying away from their rigid development toolset doctrine.
The developer in question wouldn't be happy working there either, so it's a win/win.
I would have probably done the same.
When someone uses latex and/or makes a point about using Linux you know they are going to be hard as hell to work with without them autisming out constantly.

>see resume was made with LaTeX
and you know that how exactly?
I agree with the rest
>>55022557
Because OP uses it too. Tee hee.
>>55022557
The smell of latex is pretty distinct anon. How do you not know this? desu~

This.

I once sent a cv out after editing in open office. It cost me the job. Back to MS word :~|
I actually did an internship at the HR department of a medium sized company and the first thing we did was shredding every resume that didn't have a 'normal' lay-out
>>55023410
so this resume wouldn't have made the cut?
>>55022284

(((You)))'re just trying to sabotage your competition here.

Older versions of word on OSX would have totally fucked up layouts on Windows.
>>55023432
maybe if we needed someone to sell second hand Thinkpads
>>55023434
What do you mean? That way you just filter people you know that are either so worthless they don't even bother making a proper resume or you get rid of people that are socially challenging and hard to work with, like those that use LaTeX
>>55023346
I thought about buying word but wordpad seems to work just as good.
>>55023463
A coworker received from a client a document that worked in Google's stuff, and Abiword, but not the version of Office we were using at the time. Not even MS's wares can be guaranteed compatible with MS documents.
>>55023470
Is this bait?
>>55023492
They probably do it on purpose.
If word would have 100% compatibility with all other text editors, there would be no reason for people to keep using it.
However as for now the majority of people still use word and have a hard time changing because of incompatibility issues.

>people being this autistic
You realize when he says "normal" he means stuff that looks like it was written as an essay, in comic sans, nobody, not even in HR is autistic enough to throw out stuff that was made in a certain program (unless if it was from gimp, and at that point, you might as well go back to thinkpad threads).

Normal means written in MS Word, using standard layouts found all over the internet.

I dot my i's with bell peppers so everyone knows I value freedom.

Ok, you either work in retail, or are trying too hard to bait.
>>55023540
Free software is for cuckolds. Anyone who can't be normal and use superior proprietary software should have their resume rejected.

Oh yeah? My company only accepts applications by snail mail, and we discard anything printed on an inkjet. We only want people thinking long-term here.
