My Jobseeker Profile
To go into our candidate database and allow recruiters to find you for their jobs, you need to complete a Jobseeker Profile. Click on the 'View my profile' button in the My Jobseeker Profile section. The purpose of this questionnaire is to create a file of information on you, that you control, and that recruiters can search. Once you have completed the form, you can decide how much of this information you want recruiters to be able to see. With the Jobseeker Profile visibility options at the bottom of the page you can do the following:
If you want recruiters to be able to see ALL of the information in your Jobseeker Profile, including your Personal details and CV, work experience information and new job requirements you can do so by selecting the first radio button. This is recommended.
If you want recruiters to be able to see your work experience information and new job requirements but NOT your personal details or your CV you can do so by selecting the second radio button.
If you do not want recruiters to be able to view any of your Jobseeker Profile information you can do so by selecting the third radio button.
The information we collect is as follows:
Personal details
Suffix - The official abbreviation for a qualification or degree you may have, e.g. B.A. (Bachelor of Arts), PHD (Post Honours Doctorate), DipEd (Diploma in Education).
Home phone - Number you can be reached on outside working hours.
Office phone - Number you can be reached on during working hours.
Check to allow recruiter contact via SMS - SMS stands for Short Message Service. It is the same as text messaging. Tick the check box to allow recruiters to contact you by SMS to your mobile phone in the future.
CV - Your CV must be in MS Word format. Please make sure it is not password protected. Click the 'Browse...' button and follow the prompts to locate your CV, for example it may be saved on your home PC. Or you can type its location in the My CV box.
