Is sending a resume in odt format a guarantee that your application will be ignored?
>>
Assuming you want a job that pays in some form of currency, yes.

What if I ask to be paid in freedoms, the most precious natural resource?
>>
>>55963197
They'll probably call you a pedophile and ask you to gather your anime paraphernalia and leave.
>>
>>55963127
Of course.
Send it as PDF or don't even bother applying. Retard.
If it's a job as burger flipper at McDonald's, then .rtf or something Microsoft Office related is okay too.
>>
>>55963127
Why would you send an odt file? That's like sending a doc file.

Send it as a jpg via whatsapp like a normal humen bean
>>
>>55963127
I wouldn't know because I'm not a cuck who is signing up for literal slavery. Only as a NEET you are truly free.

You let your alarm clock control your life. I'll always be free to do whatever I want, whenever I want. I can learn a new language, understand science or engineering, become the next big programmer all for free off the internet while you slave away to make a few jews rich. You're so deluded that you think you need a job, I'll always have my parents to support me along with my NEEtbuxs.
>>
>>55963127
Yes.
>>
>>55963127
why bother, just send a PDF

that being said, I had a piece of documentation regarding buying a house get sent to me as a .odt recently, felt weird as shit to see
>>
The only good format for resumes is XHTML. PDF is a format that no one should ever use for a document.
>>
If you are from Europoor, then it is fine because that is what they use, but if in America it goes to the trash.
>>
>>55963303
The whole point of PDF is that formatting is always preserved so its a good idea
>>
>apply for job online
>upload covering letter as .txt to avoid compatibility problems
>in the interview I see it printed out, on the table, having been printed from notepad.exe

>didn't get the job
>>
Always send your resume as pdf so no relaxed office mong can accidentally edit it and make you look stupid. Have some damn sense /g/
>>
echo <text> > jobapplication


If they are too stupid to open a file without a file extension then I have no desire to work for them.

Self Employment is good, but still not as good as being a NEET. you're still forced to work when you shouldn't have to when you could be living life to its fullest.
>>
If you don't write your resume in LaTeX, why even bother.
>>
>>55963568
Your poor parents...
Do you never feel guilty in taking advantage of their love?
>>
Yes.

Shouldn't you be writing your resume in LaTeX and generating a PDF anyway if you're a freetard anyway?
>>
>>55963967
Self-employment is NEET-ness minus the boredom and self-loathing. It's win-win senpai. Even if you make a few hundo buckaroos, it's life worth living.
>>
>>55963967
Full Neetdom is hard to achieve though, Unless you are a trustfund baby or sucessfully faked a mental disability.

Being NEET is unsustainable in the long term though, both financially and mentally. I know because I was a NEET for 5 years.
>>
>>55963998
Curious, at what age did you stop being a NEET and get your life together?

>>55963967

>never going on vacation to an exotic location of your own choice
>never able to afford to binge on strippers and cocaine for a month straight

>never having a girlfriend, let alone a wife, who isn't trash because respectable women don't respect worthless neets

If you live in Europe? Not at all.

All you need to become a neet and play video games forever is the full understanding of the lack of contact or empathy brings, and to prefer 2D over 3DPD.

You're not better than me.

Tbh I don't even care about any of those except living with my parents. I don't need much. But being self-reliant feels gud mane.
>>
>>55963127
As an employer, if you're applying to IT related positions then I guarantee you I will ignore anything other than pdf.

Also, if you write things up in Word in tends to scream "WORD!", so I will probably ignore it too.
>>
>>55964015
27. But my situation is special because my country has a very high unemployment level, so there's plenty of NEETs here. I wasn't a NEET because I wanted but because nobody hired me.

Nit him, but i was a NEET for 2 years. I felt like leaving my home since I started feeling like my home was falling apart cause old parents. I did not wait to see what happen if you find yourself in the street, so I searched a job and I was lucky enough to find one in a country like Spain.

Most times it's parents fault, not dealing with the problems when raising your kid can finish like that.

Use a file converter via interweb.
Its okay to be different using different type of files but we live in a system of standards.
I mean if you apply to a tech company, it might raise an eyebrow or a chuckle though. But please make it convienent for the employer.

>>
>>55966539
Not >>55966539.
Do you still think HR is about finding valuable candidates. It's about convenience, most companies do not care about how good you are just how much you can do for an $X. If you want proof go to your work and check how good the people there really are. Comply with the standards, aka PDF, try to not get full autistic in the interview, score a job you'll probably hate in 2-3 months.
