Do I have to register on the site?
Back To Top
Registration is only required if you create a Job Seeker
account. A Job Seeker account allows you to store your resume
online for employers to view and to receive job notifications of positions
that interest you. If you would like to just search through jobs and view
corporate profiles, there is no need to register. We encourage you to
create a Job Seeker account to fully experience the valuable
benefits CareerBoard can offer during your job search. Are there any fees
associated with this service? As a job seeker CareerBoard is a completely
free service. You may search jobs, post your résumé and/or sign up for
job notifications at no cost to you. To get started click here
and choose your city.
How do I post my résumé with your
site?
Back To Top
Résumés can either be created using our online template or by copying
and pasting from a Word document. You may have to reformat your document
after pasting into our form. We ask that you update your résumé at least
every 9 months.
Who has access to my résumé?
Back To Top
Only our member companies have access to your résumé. Our technology
customers sometimes act as third party recruiters. Our résumé database
is maintained as a service to CareerBoard job seekers and employers, and
will not be sold to a third party.
Can my current employer view
my resume on the site?
Back To Top
CareerBoard allows you to make your résumé private, therefore
"hiding" all of your contact information. Potential employers
only view your brief description and then can send us an email, which is
then forwarded onto to you. If you are interested in the opportunity it is
your choice to send your résumé directly to the employer. Since the
email is sent through CareerBoard, your contact information is never
revealed to employers unless you authorize its release.
What types of employers post jobs
on CareerBoard.com?
Back To Top
Whether you are just starting your career or looking for a new
opportunity, CareerBoard puts you in contact with direct hire companies in
your local area. Organizations of all sizes and industries post their
openings on CareerBoard. You can search for and view jobs by industry
classification or job type and consider only opportunities that are of
particular interest to you.
If I find a position I am
interested in, where do I send my résumé?
Back To Top
CareerBoard.com puts you in direct contact with the hiring company.
Each posting contains the contact information and the preferred method of
response. Some employers include a contact name, phone, fax and email
address while others only include an email address or a Web reply. All
inquires and follow-up should be directed to the direct hiring company.
CareerBoard does not forward resumes onto our clients.
Will companies be notified when I
put my résumé on the site?
Back To Top
Yes. Companies can sign-up for resume notifiers that let them know when
job seekers place their résumés within a specific job category. This is
a great feature and frequently speeds up the process for both employers
and job seekers.
What if I forget my password?
Back To Top
Your username and password can be emailed directly to you through our
system by providing your email address in the "Forget your 'Sign-in'
for Personal CB?" area located under the Job Seeker account
sign in. This feature is available to use 24/7.
How do I stop receiving Job
Notifications?
Back To Top
Log into your Job Seeker account and then click on Job
Notifiers. You have the option to create, edit or delete notifiers within
this option. Choose delete. If you would like to delete your entire
account including job notifiers and your résumé log into your Personal
CareerBoard account and click on Edit Account. There is an option to
delete your account. It's that easy! When you wish to re-start your
service you will need to re-create your account.
How will I know if an employer
received my résumé?
Back To Top
Since all résumés are directed to the hiring companies all inquires
regarding receipt of your resume should also be directed to the hiring
company. Some companies will send you an automatic reply when your résumé
is received. Following up with an employer after submitting a résumé is
vital to any job search.
Can I edit my résumé once it is posted
on the site?
Back To Top
Yes, changes can be made to your resume at anytime by logging into your
Job Seeker account and choosing the Resume option. We ask you to
update your résumé at least every 9 months. Résumés older than 9
months are automatically deleted from the site, and a notice will be sent
prior to the deletion.
In my job search, what is the best way
to use the keyword function?
Back To Top
Keywords are a great way to narrow your focus when searching for a job.
When using multiple keywords, separate the words with "AND" or
"OR." Using "AND" will only return jobs that have all
of the keywords while '"OR" will return job postings with just
one of the keywords matching.
Can I search for positions just in my
area?
Back To Top
Yes, CareerBoard was developed around the "Local Focus" by
dividing the state of Ohio into three major markets,
