of Using a Job Search Agent: Less
Search Time: Jobs are delivered to you by e-mail, pre-sorted based on keyword
matches.
Fast
and Easy Resume Submission: Most sites allow you can submit your ASCII resume
and cover letter with just one click of the mouse.
Confidential
Job Searching: This method can be used exclusively during a passive job search.
It's ideal for job seekers who want to protect their privacy, as the resume is
not POSTED publicly, but is sent only to advertised positions that you want
to pursue.

Your Image with a Web Resume Web
resumes offer several unique and attractive benefits over other resume formats.
Whether used alone – or as an accessory to complement other versions of your
resume – a Web resume with an ASCII download can be an effective personal
marketing tool.
A
well-executed, properly-designed Web resume really stands out – and when
used in conjunction with an ASCII resume (sent in response to a job posting) job
seekers can benefit
by using both formats. HTML
formatting is not only attractive, but its hyperlinks can seamlessly connect the
viewer to supporting data that bolsters the job seeker's skill set. The
Web's hyperlinked, multi-media capabilities are especially beneficial to creative
job seekers, consultants, and IP candidates who can benefit from the inclusion
of video, audio, graphic design, art, photography, or Web technology. The Net
is the only medium that readily supports such a wide range of media.

Resumes and
Confidential Job Searching In
confidential situations, your Web resume can be heavily marketed once you eliminate
identifying information. For example, you can link to it from an ASCII cover
letter e-mailed during an aggressive campaign search – or you can host the
Web resume in a public database, submit the URL to search engines, etc. On
the other hand, many C-level executives prefer private hosting, where the resume
is accessible only to the select few who are invited to view it. |
