I do think that TeXmacs can be used as a generic Word clone with beautiful typesetting, maybe "out-of-the-box", maybe with a little bit of tweaking. If you need tweaking, the forum at http://forum.texmacs.cn/ may be helpful.
For the resume, you may want to check out some cv templates in https://github.com/texmacs/tm-forge under the `examples` directory.
