Import Resume Important Note

Only the text version of a resume is searched. Though you can store a Word formatted version of the resume with the applicant profile you cannot search this file.

It is important to make sure you have a text version in the applicant profiles. The test version can be added in a number of ways.

  • Smart resume automatically creates a text version of the resume from the Microsoft Word version.
  • When the applicant completes a profile using a career site, they are prompted to paste the text version of their resume.
  • You can manually paste the text into the Text Resume box.

In this example you will upload the resume file, and paste the text. You will need to open the resume and paste into the Resume Text box.

1. Launch Microsoft Word.

If you need to store additional documents in the applicant profile, you can create additional custom fields using the field file type File Link. Each of these fields can be stored in a separate document.

Alternatively, you can create a field type Smart Folder, link the applicant profile to a folder, and store an unlimited number of documents. This feature can be linked to the applicant signup feature, so that a folder is automatically created for the applicant when they create their profile.
