For what it's worth, I got my first job by sending an e-mail resume in plaintext. It was for a game company and my cover letter only talked about how much I love video games...
Every other job I have gotten, since then, didn't require a resume. It was either through contacts or... contacts. Of course, I still had an interview but I never wrote another resume. I'm actually kind of worried about having to do that, again, someday...
