I'm going to take a stab and say she's a recruiter for a third party staffing company.
They REQUIRE word docs so that they can copy and paste or edit your resume on their template.
Pro tip: take the requirements that they send you and Google search for it. Apply directly with the company and cut them out.
Unless you open the pdf in gimp or something (and it's not just a photo, which would be equally bad in a word document) you should be able to copy from a PDF too.
I mean her profile says she works for "First Search" which sound like a middle man for sure.
And "Chief Candidate Whisperer"? Wtf. Don't get me started.
