**tim**: May I also say that OP's CV is hard to parse for a person who is constantly online and exposed to much better-formatted information interfaces?

I know people will say, "But recruiters are just looking for the data; they will most likely ignore formatting and copy!" but let's be real here: this is not true. Recruiters are humans, and they will certainly react to a CV that has excellent copywriting, typesetting, and parse-friendly format.
