Why do I need to upload my resume?

Your uploaded resume is the document our verified recruiters see when they find you in search. Recruiters will also view a brief profile based on the information in your resume.

Your profile highlights key elements like education, work history, and experience, and is created automatically for you when your resume is uploaded.

The software recruiters use can process this profile very easily, so take a moment after uploading your resume to make any edits that may be necessary.

To upload your resume:

Tap “Resume” at the top of any page in your account.

Choose your resume file from either “Dropbox”, “Google Drive”, “LinkedIn” profile (blue link), or from your device hard drive (blue link).

Your resume should upload in seconds.

You’ll notice that information has been taken from your resume and placed into the left section of the page. Take a moment to double-check this, as it is there based on recruiter needs.

You'll also see an option to use our Free Resume Review.

This free resource provides feedback on resume formatting and information, in a way specifically designed to cover each stage of the application process, including software that often rejects resumes at the first step.

To access your free resume review:

Hover over “Resume” on any page.

Choose “Free Resume Review Tool” from the drop down menu.
