It was immediately obvious to me that it was written in LaTeX because of the font. Sure, you could use Computer Modern without LaTeX, or use LaTeX with a different font, but that's pretty uncommon in my experience.
You can also check the pdf metadata and see:
Creator: LaTeX with hyperref
Producer: pdfTeX-1.40.24
This rule only applies to a certain percentage of people, but I've benefited from it as well. For my first internship, I later found out that the only reason they interviewed me was because I used LaTeX. On paper, I was a generic student, but using LaTeX for my CV made me stand out.
I think it creates an unconscious bias. If you've gone to university and read some papers, chances are all the papers were written with LaTeX. You spend hours reading and re-reading these papers and it creates an unconscious bias where you read things in the font more carefully because you're used to the content being insanely dense.
