What makes these PDFs easy to search and send?

The text inside is real, selectable text, not an image, so applicant tracking systems can read it and recruiters can search it. There is no watermark and no signup. Name the file with your full name and the word resume or CV, and keep it under the portal’s size limit, which a text-based PDF easily stays within.
