Are you sure it didn't end-up being called resume.html.txt ? To save in notepad without .txt-suffix, put the filename with suffix in quotes -- like: "resume.html" .

In any case you need a closing tag for title and add a slash to the second head tag... and you should probably *write* something too (not sure if everything work without):

<html>
<head>
<title>Resume</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>My Resume</h1>
<p>I was born...</p>
<p>I lived...</p>
<p>I died...</p>
<p>I'm applying for this job</p>
</body>
</html>
 
For starters, you need to end the TITLE tag.

Secondly, perhaps it would be beneficial to add something, anything, to the file (something in the body and/or title). so that you know it actually loaded.
 
right click -> open with -> Internet Explorer
or
it may be you didn't set the file extension properly. It can be like "resume.html.txt". (here ".txt" is not visible normally)
goto Control Panel -> Folder Option -> View Tab -> Untic "hide extension for known files". Then you can see your real file extension.
rename it to "resume.html".
