Many employers and job-seekers use the Internet almost exclusively for obscure

things but in some cases almost exclusively in their search. Keeping résumés

exclusively in electronic format has altered the dynamic of résumé reading and

writing in several ways.

* Job seekers must choose a file format in which to maintain their résumé. Many

employers, especially recruitment agencies on their behalf, insist on receiving

résumés only as Microsoft Word documents. Others will only accept résumés formatted

in HTML, PDF, or plain ASCII text.
* Many potential employers now find candidates' résumés through search engines,

which makes it more important for candidates to use appropriate keywords when

writing a résumé.
* Including an e-mail address in an online résumé may expose the job seeker to

spam.

Some career fields include a special section listing the life-long works of the

author. For computer-related fields, the softography; for musicians and composers,

the discography; for actors, a filmography.

Keeping résumés online has become increasingly common for people in professions

that benefit from the multimedia and rich detail that are offered by an HTML

résumé, such as actors, photographers, graphic designers, developers, dancers, etc.
