HotJobs used to be a mild-mannered job board, back in the day (where “the day” is October or so). <-- aka, "the last time I was unemployed and had to update my resume on HotJobs --> I could paste in a fully HTML-formatted resume and it would accept it without problems.
However, HotJobs is now owned by Yahoo and it’s picked up some bad habits. No longer can I paste in a full-blown HTML-formatted resume. Well, it still accepts HTML (or doesn’t explicitely reject it, at any rate), but the new system adds <br> tags to the beginning of every line (and not even <br />, natch), which really fubars my layout.
Does anyone have any insight as to how I can make the most of this? Sure, I still can make selective use of <strong> and <em>, but does anything else come to mind in terms of formatting within the restrictions that Yahoo has applied?
Friends of mine have actually pasted html code into the Yahooo forms in order to get them to generate better code. Sorta hard to explain. Email me privately and I’ll send you URL example.
