Resume Tools


Smart Searching

To do a search go the the Resume Homepage and click search the resumes.

This will take you to form with lots of different element, which you can use to customize your search.

One of the most useful tools to narrow down your search is the Other Search Terms box. This box allows you to search the actual text of a resume for keywords. For example, If I were looking for a student who had experience with the AutoCAD software package, I could enter AutoCAD in the Other Search Terms box, and it would only return resumes that contained "AutoCAD." The search is not case sensitive, but it is sensitive to punctuation and spacing, so it would be best if instead of "AutoCAD," I used "AutoCAD Auto CAD Auto-CAD," That way, even if the student spelled it differently than I am used to, I will still get his or her resume.

Search terms should not be seperated with commas, spaces or tabs will do fine. When you have finished entering search terms click the Search button. This will take you to a list of all students who meet the criteria you selected. Their names are links to their resumes.
