3rd party recruiters do this to try and lure clients (organizations that are hiring) in. They also do it to pretend you already work at the consulting firm (if the recruiter is for the consulting firm) and other shady stuff.

You are probably better off not working with someone who is editing your resume.

Higher quality 3rd party recruiters don’t do this stuff.

It’s bests to stick with pdfs
