Maybe for hackers, but not for people in positions like IB and Accounting.
Their has been studies that the recruiter barely looks at the resume for 6 seconds. That they make their decision during the interview
Designers don't really need it, too. Especially in freelancing, resumes are not necessary.
I've gone to other jobs like admin jobs an they ask For resume but they barely look at it. Sometimes they just sidetrack and ask me workout tips -__- straight face. But it has gotten me the job lol
