I've submitted at least one resume in plain .txt, and got the job.
I maintain my resume in .rst (and render it to .pdf via LO for now). Depending on the employer, it's conceivable that I could submit the .rst file.
As for "formatted" docs, I wish we could settle on some common version of .rtf. That's more than good enough for what most people really need to do.
Heck, even most email clients do pretty good formatting. It'd be nice if we could commonly write docs in our email client, and save to .pdf or .rtf or .someformat. (Now someone's going to tell me I can do that.)
