I came accross a website entitled jobsbyfax.com.  As I reviewed their site, I was confused my over 40,000 visitors went to this site each month.  As I understand it, the Jobs By Fax website provides a service in which users upload their resumes and then have these resumes then faxed to a hiring manager at an appropriate company.  A user pays a base fee of $29.99 for this service.  The site claims that 

their service is dramatically different from posting your resume for free with the big online sites where you endlessly hope the right type of employer will find your resume among 40,000,000+ (that's forty million) other resumes, and then call you... you are paying to proactively have hundreds, even thousands of companies that you choose receive your clearly printed, graphically impressive resume and cover letter by fax. You are faxing it from our database and fax computers directly to the decision maker in the businesses you choose.Your resume will stand out because it is being delivered in a fax transmission without other competing resumes, and your resume is automatically addressed on the header to a high level decision maker in the business.Your resume gets seen 100% of the time because it is delivered already opened, just like all faxes. Our system automatically prints on the header "DELIVER TO ==>ACTUAL DECISION MAKER'S NAME" so secretaries route it directly to that person rather than treating it like a random fax that could be filed or trashed.

I was impressed and ready to sign up for their service until the realization hit me that this service is all wrong.

What triggered my negative response is that faxing is an old technology that has been superceded by email and most large companies want to run applications through their applicant tracking system.  If that is the case then the hiring manager would need to have some input the resume into the ATS to treat this application similar to others.  Adding more work for the recruiter will not generate better results.

Then again, who am I to critize this service.  Maybe old technologies works best, it may be worth your while to mail your resume or send it by telex.
