Resume for the programmer? No, have not heard

Resume - an increasingly useless artifact for the programmer.

• Good programmers do not have time to keep it up to date. Often the most intelligent candidates have the most unreadable and terrible resumes. Making a well-styled resume requires a lot of time. On this, as a rule, there is only time for those who sit without work and instead of engaging in self-education, they endlessly draw up a resume.
• The list of past jobs means little. Three years of experience in Yandex? Congratulations! But at 100% it only means that you were able to have an interview. What exactly did you do and how well - there are no answers in the summary. Most of the developers worked in unknown companies, many of which did not even reach the release.
• The number of years of experience is useless if it is unknown what tasks were solved. Perhaps you spent 5 years supporting the old project and you know only all the bugs of the closed X library, which is not used anywhere else.

Well and most importantly - they are not looking for resumes. A good profile on Github, Habré or Stackoverflow will give a lot more job offers than any superfood resume. And if you really want to write something to your employer, it is better to spend your energy on the cover letter - to tell why you want to work here and how your experience, skills and enthusiasm will help the company.
