I particularly love recruiters who insist that you send them a resume in MS Word format, so that they can remove your contact details and stick their agency's ugly letterhead on top (or "improve" your resume for you if they're particularly unethical).

"I'll need your resume in Word Format."

"I can give you a PDF"

"Give me the original in Word Format."

"There is no original in Word Format, I wrote my resume in LaTeX. Besides, why do you need to be able to edit my resume?"

And... ghosted.

> "Give me the original in Word Format."

Since they're all but certainly going to ghost you anyway, why not just

"Sure, here's the original. This is using features that aren't in the ancient Debian distribution of TeXlive; you'll want to follow the excellent instructions at https://github.com/posquit0/Awesome-CV to get XeLaTeX configured correctly (or it'll bomb out with the most inscrutable of errors).

I'm having a couple of locale issues with attaching files through pine at the moment, so I've pasted the source below. I trust it will not be difficult to copy-paste to a new file.

  %!TEX TS-program = xelatex
  %!TEX encoding = UTF-8 Unicode
  \documentclass[11pt, a4paper]{awesome-cv}
  \geometry{left=1.4cm, top=.8cm, right=1.4cm, bottom=1.8cm, footskip=.5cm}
  \fontdir[fonts/]
  \colorlet{awesome}{awesome-blue}
  \setbool{acvSectionColorHighlight}{true}
  .
  .
  .
  {\thepage}
  \end{document}
Let me know if there are any issues.

Thanks!"
