Creating and submitting your resume

When you submit your resume, it is sent to the recruiter assigned to the job you choose and also entered into a database utilized by our entire recruiting group. Our recruiters regularly search this database to locate qualified candidates for open jobs. You will only be contacted by a recruiter if your resume advances to the interview stage for a particular job.

Maximizing “hits”:

  • When searching our database for candidates, we utilize keywords and phrases that are relevant to specific jobs. Your resume should also include keywords that define your skill, experience, education, professional affiliations, etc.
  • Describe your experience with concrete words rather than vague descriptions.
  • Use more than one page if necessary.
  • Use jargon and acronyms specific to your industry. Make sure you list appropriate certifications and/or licenses.
  • If you are not sure if the appropriate keywords are part of the text, add a paragraph of keywords to the bottom of your resume.

Although your resume will remain in our database for two years, it is important you resubmit it for all positions in which your skills and background are a potential fit. Doing so will help us to review it in a timely manner.
