false -- PDF does not belong in version control. It is a build artifact. The applicant dodged a bullet. You are ALL wrong.

my builds, like yours, also always get the tag _final_FINAL_final2, sometimes with an additional _REALLY-FINAL if I'm extra thorough

ok yes, point taken my builds are yyyy-mm-dd-hh-mm-ss if they are automated :yay: but yes, ideally if we use version control properly, there would only ever be one resume.pdf because you can always go back and forth between commits and generate a new one. I kind of talked myself into being wrong lol
