I don't have a markdown resume but I think that it would be cool to create one. However at the end of the day we are giving our resume to recruiters and they only work with Microsoft office 🤣

lol funny enough, Microsoft asked for a markdown resume. But I really like the format, especially when applying to programs and conference scholarships. Instead of a link to the google doc, I can share a link to the gist

Ok thats a really good usage for it. Do you have a separate Markdown and Word doc resume? Or do you just have a version in Markdown that you can export as Word?

Yeah, I have a one pager in Google Docs that I update for every role and download as a PDF. I also have the markdown resume in a private gist
