Hard-Copy Resumes?
Does anyone have any idea with the etiquette is regarding paper resumes? I recently found a job online that seems right up my alley, but the online application is a bit weird. Would it be alright to send an actual real paper resume to the corporate HQ?

It is absolutely OK to send a paper resume but ensure it's printed on white paper as most companies will scan it.
That said, it is to your advantage to fill out an online application as well. Everything is computerized today and with the volume of resumes received companies are relying on the computer software to show the best matches.
So, if it's a job you really want - I'd try to do both if you can.
