You are asking yourself, "What the heck is this ugly, text-only, unformatted, UTF-8, line-break resume?" Not very pretty is it 
, but it serves an important resume format that you might need in your arsenal and I'm going to tell you what it is and why it is important.
Some organizations accept Word/Open Office docs for resume submissions while some will request your resume be embedded into the email body...not as an attachment. Problem is Word/Open Office have all sorts of formatting so copying and pasting directly from these applications into your email body may yield unpredictable results and possibly kill your nicely formatted resume. Since not everyone uses MS Outlook you must assume they are using something else, this means you need a text-only line break resume.
If you look at the attached example you will see how the entire resume is left justified, text-only, UTF-8 (Unicode), short line lengths (no more than 65 characters and spaces) and NO FORMATTING! So you ask, OK fine but why do they request this type of resume? Simple reason is that some organizations have a resume bank in which all submitted resumes are uploaded. The resume bank software must scan/read your resume and output specific information to recruiters/hiring managers. While some resume bank software might be able to read a MS Word doc, all can read plain text, like the attached. Also, the organization might use different computer platform or different word processing software...either way the text-only line break format will cover these situations. So when they ask for a text-only resume with no formatting or want it included in the body of the email...you will need to use this format.
Another reason for having such a resume format is for website submissions. Submitting your resume into an online form on a website will require you to either retype your entire resume into the online form or...you guessed it, copy and paste an unformatted line-break resume/CV into the online form. Again this is to ensure the software can read your resume in their resume bank. Organizations that use such software accept they are not going to receive and read a formatted resume...for now they just want the facts. If they are interested, many will contact you and request a formatted resume in MS Word/Open Office doc. Of course you would quickly provide them the exact same resume as your unformatted text format submission, right 
.
I included the CV in this example as a filler in case you want to include your CV when submitting in this format. If no CV is required or possibly in another text area of an online form, then just delete the CV text from this resume example. Also, I included a "Keyword" section at the beginning, again this is for scanning purposes to assist resume banks in finding your resume among the thousands...you can keep it or delete it.
