Since you have gone to the trouble of posting your resume and cover letter, you may want to consider making your resume inaccessible to employers and accessible only to you by making your resume nonsearchable before you decide to delete your account. You can also deactivate your account however this would not allow you to apply to any job. [top] 5. Can my resume, saved as Microsoft Word, be copied and pasted into the resume section? Yes, it can. You may want to read our article on Creating a Plain Text Resume in order to understand fully how to format your resume once you have pasted it into the resume text box. [top] 6.

[top] 7. How can I select multiple categories when posting my resume? To select multiple categories, first pick a category. Then, any subsequent categories can be added by pressing the Ctrl key while clicking on those categories that you would like to select. [top] 8. Can I tell which employers have accessed my resume off of the searchable database? We do not track who has seen your resume. Our subscribing employers have expressed their desire to remain anonymous and we honor this request. The employers will contact you if your qualifications meet their needs. [top] 9. What are the three levels of confidentiality that I can have for my resume or application? You have three options when storing your resume on our website: You can make it completely public with all contact information available to employers; you can make it confidential which will not show your contact information, but will be searchable in the database; or you can remove your resume from the searchable database by making your resume "nonsearchable."
[top] 10. What is the difference between making my resume nonsearchable and deactivating my resume? Making your resume nonsearchable allows you to apply to jobs but your resume will not be in the employers' resume database. If you deactivate your resume, you will not be able to apply to any jobs. [top] 11. Why can't I use my EngineeringDesignJobs.com login to apply to this job? There are two 'types' of apply processes. Some of the employers
have chosen to use our website's application process and
some employers have chosen to use their own application process. When you click on this Apply for this
Job, you will be taken to an 'apply screen'. If you have previously
created a stored resume on our site, you may enter
your login information at the top of this screen and it will send
your resume to the employer. If you have NOT created a stored resume,
enter the required information into the provided fields and click
'Submit Resume'. [top] A Job Alert notifies you when job posts are added to the site that match your profile. [top] 13. How do I create, edit or delete my Job Alert (email Job Match Notification)? An alert is created when you create your account. You can “Turn Your Email Notification” off by going to “Job Alerts” and clicking on the off button. You can edit your alert by going into Job Alerts and make the changes you want and click “Update notification." [top] 14. Why am I not receiving my job alerts? From time to time we experience difficulty sending email to Hotmail, MSN, Live, Yahoo, AT&T or any of its subsidiaries. Additionally, it is possible that you may have made your search too specific, which will reduce the number of jobs that match your search criteria. [top] 15. How do I get better search results?
[top] Companies use this feature as a convenience to you. You can print out a fax cover sheet and not have to worry about a busy fax signal, lost faxes, machines out of paper and the cost to send an out-of-area fax. This feature makes it easy to send your resume by fax. [top] 17. How does a Resume Upgrade work? Purchasing a Resume Upgrade will increase the visibility of your resume to employers by over 90%.
