The only thing I'd say is if you apply to jobs through agencies they rarely send your original CV to the customer. They usually cut an paste it into a standard format. I'm not sure if my OCP logo ever makes it to the customer.
Good point Tim...I've experienced the same in the past. I hate when they change my resume. One time I had an opportunity to see exactly what the y sent...wow, they made me look like I really didn't know anything. The said I had experience with Oracle10...when I had listed on my resume Oracle Apps. Release 10SC.

I've had the same problem, I now insist that my CV is used or I have copy approval otherwise I won't use the agency.
During my managerial days I once had a CV from an agency where they had put pictures of bunnies and flowers on it to make it look 'more eye catching'. Unfortunantly I don't think their client was too impressed.

For the same reason, I save my resume.doc as read only. so no one tampers with it.
I think I'll make it in pdf as well but the only thing is they insist 'microsoft word' please!
