Once it reaches the inbox of the employer, it goes to the database where it is stored for screening. The right format for electronic resume is ASCII. It is a kind of data that is read by most computers and operating systems.
Converting an electronic resume to the ASCII format is as easy as one, two, three. You just have to go to File, Save As, Save as Type, and select Text Only. When opened, this should be in a Notepad or Simple Text with all bullets, formatted text, underlining, tabs, and graphics removed. The end product is a decent and clean-looking resume that is ready for sending to prospective employer anytime.
