Advice when applying

Prepare your resume and cover letter

• You can tailor your resume and any requested cover letter for each job you apply to.
• Make sure each fully reflects your relevant experience, education and skills for that position – our recruiters only forward applicants who meet all Required Qualifications listed on the job posting, including any Minimum and Additional Qualifications.

Here Are Some Other Quick Tips

• Communicate via email
• Check your email for updates about the status of your application.
• Be specific
• Include job responsibilities and achievements as opposed to only listing a job title.
• Be specific! Make sure to include dates or how long you worked at each job.
• Spell out acronyms and provide context to company-specific programs (example: Proficient in PAS [Purchasing and Accounts Payable Online System]).
• Be sure to include your computer experience. List each application specifically by name (i.e., Microsoft Excel, Word, Publisher, Outlook, etc.).
• Don’t worry about references
• References will be checked only for top candidates. It’s not necessary to include a list of references on your resume.
