Haha, exactly this! The resume is the first work sample you receive from an applicant, and it's absolutely baffling that even nowadays with all the tools available, a LOT of them still have glaring typos, poor grammar, confusing formatting, wrong length, you-name-it. It is absolutely correct that a perfect resume might not mean much in terms of skills, however, it's been very rare that someone with a poorly made resume even made it through the first screening interview.
