Resume - email or snail mail?

[LimeSlice]

I would email, and then take hard copy on the day of interview if you get one.

email for sure, I've employed heaps of people and advertised jobs, by the time a snail mail res arrived I would have interviewed and possible filled the position Tip PDF your emailed res do not send a word doc.

How do I change it from a .doc to a pdf? I changed it from a .docx already just in case they didnt have that version... oh dear...

You should be given the option to "Save As" a pdf.

I don't think you can save as a pdf unless you're in an adobe program.

I'd email if they give an email address, but I snail mailed for the job I've got now, and the job before this. I was cold 'calling' (or mailing, as it was). I didnt want them to just be abe to delete me

We have downloaded cutepdf. It's a free pdf writer and it becomes like a virtual printer once installed. You print your document, select cutepdf as your printer then it asks where you want to save the pdf and it's done

Thank you for all the prompt feedback everyone

haha look at that! I should open my eyes more often. Thanks

Microsoft Word 2007 gives you the option to publish as a pdf document (ie save as .pdf) if you have that program

Thanks for that tip cherished1 it looks ten times better without the word markings on it too.
