Resume Upload

Candidates can submit resumes through candidate self service, or recruiters can save resume text for candidates from resumes submitted in other formats. Any resumes or cover letters for a candidate are listed in the Resumes section of the Candidate Profile.

For Recruiters: To view a candidate's resume or resumes, go to the Recruitment menu option, and choose Candidate Profile. Select the applicant from the upper navigation bar. To review a resume, click on its View link. If a current candidate has submitted a resume via email or another method outside the system, you can add the resume to the candidate's record.
