Judging by the pronunciation, I can't see how both 'e's can be accented. Unless you say "ray soo may".

[copper]

Um, that's actually how I've always heard it said. How is it pronounced, otherwise?

[glenjamin]

Oh, I'd only heard it as "res oo may", with the first e soft.

[glenjamin]

update: I figured i'd see wikipedia for the answer:

A résumé (pronounced /ˈrɛzʊmeɪ/ REZ-oo-may or /rɛzʊˈmeɪ/; French: [ʁezyme]; sometimes spelled resumé or resume)

The IPA guide has a soft e in the first syllable, but still suggests an accented first e. How odd.

[raganwald]

I pronounce it that way in speech.
