Time Roman is a very readable typeface but perhaps some think that Helvetica scans better or the experts are Swiss!

I prefer resumes in Courier on my IBM Selectric :)
With all the online submissions nowadays, and the use of word processing templates, interesting resume design seems to be a lost art.

I like Palatino for body text and Optima for headings but that's for my resume. I'm not sure I'd bother to read a resume done entirely in any san serif. Life has enough headaches as it is.
