If you are an HR manager and you're unable to open a PDF then you should first try and finish first grade high school before continuing your job.
How many great employees have YOU missed out on because you're so lacking in basic life skills that one wonders how you found the tit as a baby to nourish yourself...
It's more of an issue with the HR platforms not being able to read PDF's. It doesn't help opening a PDF outside of the platform you are using for hiring actions
If HR at a company doesn't have the capability of opening the most common document format, that's not a company worth working at. Doesn't really matter if the idiots are HR, IT, or management.
Now that Chrome, Firefox and Microsoft Edge can not only open but even fill PDFs straight out of the box, there's no excuse to not be able to open a random PDF file these days. It means you're either still using Internet Explorer or something equally dogshit
Don't throw shade on IEx now! I'd rather not spend New Year's waiting for the retort.
You can open pdf files. PDF files were designed to be interchangeable, and readable in the same way everywhere, it's the entire point of the format. If some shit platform cannot open a PDF file, then you need a new platform, period. It's a basic ingredients, it's like leaving out potatoes in mashed potatoes. You can still open up the file outside the platform and if said platform doesn't allow that then by god are you on the wrong wrong platform.
I have reviewed many resumes, I HATE Athenones that are sent in with word, it's always a hassle to open, it always looks different on different versions, it requires me to have to deal with Microsoft shit which I don't want, use PDF.
