Are You Applying for Jobs Online?
Thursday, June 12th, 2008
Everywhere you look you will find job postings that instruct you to post your resume on the employer’s job site.
If it is not properly formatted for this purpose, it may not make it past the initial screen. At best, the employer will pass this off as a lack of awareness on your part and may still go ahead and review your credentials. At worst, the computer will not be able to scan and store your resume and/or you will be rejected as a candidate who lacks the technical skills to compete in a highly computerized work environment.
