Mine is written in LaTeX, and converted to PDF with pdflatex. Does that work? :D

As someone who gets a ton of resumes from academia, I see these very often. The problem here is that they all look the same because everyone is using the 'moderncv' package. If you want to stand out, invest some time to create your own template (but otherwise, it's perfectly fine, at least you'll have the basic structure correct).

Well, I am not using "moderncv" at all. I use three packages: "geometry", "inputenc", and "graphicx". That said, it does not look as appealing as these "creative" resumes (made using HTML & CSS or Adobe Illustrator, etc)

Then you know where to look for things. Imagine if papers started to put the abstract somewhere else

Meh. My "resume.html.pdf" has gotten me multiple jobs.

That doesn’t say anything, really.

It might very well be that you html.pdf thingy is great.
