Navigating a wizard

A wizard is a tool that guides you through a process by navigating you from one page to the next until the process is complete. Wizards are used to help you build a full or basic profile in the career site, as well as to guide you through the job application process.

A wizard has the following properties.

• A wizard can display where you are in the process.

  When you are in wizard-driven process, at any step in the process you can see where you are and how many steps are left.

• When you start a wizard, you can go forward in the process by clicking Continue, and backward by clicking Back until you return to the page you want to modify. For example, suppose that by the time you get to the Submit stage in the application wizard (and before you submit the application), you remember that you wanted to add something to your profile. You can click Back until you return to the profile page, make and save your changes, then click Continue until you return to the Acknowledgement page.

  Note You can also cancel out of the process at any time before you submit.

• You must complete the entire process for your profile or your application to be visible to recruiters.

Register

You must register if you want to save job searches or apply for a job. You need to register only once. After you register, you are automatically logged in and prompted to review or update your profile.

IMPORTANT We require you to have an email address as your user-ID. If you do not have an email address, you can quickly create a free email account as part of the registration process. If email is not your preferred method of communication, you will be able to specify your preferred method of communication (regular mail or telephone) on your preferences page.

1. Access the registration page. You can access this page from several places.

   • On our career site Home page, click Register.

     or

   • On any of the Search pages, click Register in the upper right corner of the page.

     or

   • If you click Apply Now or Save To Job Cart and you are not logged in, the Login dialog box appears. If you are not registered, click here on the "click here to register" line to access the registration page.

2. On the registration page, provide the following information.

   Password	Type in the password that you will use to log in to the system. Take a note of the password.
   Confirm Password	Retype the password exactly as you typed it on the previous line.

3. Provide the following information:

   • If you are given the option to either upload a resume or upload from a social media account, it means that the system has the capability of extracting information from your resume or social media profile and create a profile for you.
     
     If you have an electronic resume, attach it (click the Browse button to locate your resume on your machine)
     
     or
     
     If you have a profile in LinkedIn, Facebook, or Google+ that you would like to use, select the Upload From checkbox.

   • If You are not given the option to either upload a resume or upload a social media profile, you must enter basic information to register (first name, last name, how you prefer to be contacted and at least one phone number).
     
     After you register, you will be able to attach a resume to your profile, but the resume contents will not be extracted to your profile, so you will still need to enter profile information after you register.

     Note In either case, attaching a resume is a good idea, as it will be visible to recruiters and may contain additional information not extracted to your profile.

4. Click Continue.

   • If you selected a resume to upload, the system parses your resume. When it is done, a confirmation page opens. Click "Click here" to review and update your profile, or click Done if you do not want to review your profile at this point.

     Note You will want to review your profile before you apply for any position to make sure your resume parsed correctly, and to add any information that may not have come through. For more information, see Update your profile.

   • If you selected Upload From, a Registration Summary page opens with a three step procedure that guides you importing a social media profile.

     1. Click Provide Credentials.

     2. On the Sign in to account form, click the Sign In link for the social media from which you want to retrieve your profile.

     3. On the LinkedIn, Facebook, or Google+ form that opens, enter your login to LinkedIn, Facebook, or Google+.

     4. Click "OK, I'll Allow It" to grant Talemetry® access to your account.

        Note Talemetry Apply is the service that this organization has contracted to import your social media profile to Career Space.

     5. When the message "Credentials Successfully Validated" appears, close the window to return to the registration page.

     6. On the Registration - Summary page, click Get Profile.

        IMPORTANT This step is essential to create your profile in Career Space.

        When this step is completed, the Review Profile link is activated.

     7. Click the Review Profile link to access your profile and review it. If the profile is incomplete, you can update it. For more information, see Update your profile.

   • If you did not upload a resume or import a profile from a social media account, a confirmation page opens. Click "Click here" to review and update your profile, or click Done if you do not want to update your profile at this point.

     Note Since your profile at this point contains only contact information, You will need to complete your profile before you apply for a position. For more information, see Update your profile.

(Return to top)

Update your profile

Note Whether your profile was automatically created by uploading your resume or social media profile, or whether you have provided only basic personal information on registration, you would want to verify and/or update your profile as soon as possible.

You can update your profile at any time. In addition you can update your profile for a specific job application, as described in Apply for a job.

Note Updates you make in your profile are included in all the applications you submit after the updates. Updates you make to your profile while you are applying for a job are included only in the job application.

1. Log in to the career site and click My Profile.

2. If a My Questions tab exists, you can click the tab and answer the questions. These are questions that are applicable to all your job applications. Answering questions at this point will save you the time of answering them again on each job application, where you will be required to answer the questions if you have not already done so.

   Note You will be able to change your answers on your job applications, but be aware that your answers will also be changed on this tab, as they are part of your candidate record rather than job application record.

3. To update your contact information, preferences information, and talent attributes information, click the Profile tab.

   Your profile appears with all the sections expanded. To view the complete profile in compressed form, click Collapse all. You can also compress or expand each section individually. You can also view your profile as a PDF and print it.

4. To update your contact information, click Update Contact Info, update your information, and click Save.

   You do not have to provide information in every field. Just provide enough information to ensure that an interested recruiter will be able to contact you (name, address, and so on). Note the following fields.

   Preferred Mailing Address	Indicate where you want mail to be addressed to you. If you choose Secondary, you must enter a secondary mailing address.
   Preferred Contact Method	Select your preferred method of communication. This the method our recruiters will use first in trying to communicate with you.
   Primary Contact Information	If you want our recruiters to be able to contact you, you must at the minimum enter your primary contact information. Primary Email is the email that you used to register and log in. You can change it. But your login email remains your login User ID. Resume/CV Email is the email that was uploaded from your resume if it is different from your primary email.
   Primary Phone Numbers	You can enter a home phone, a work phone, or a mobile phone, and select one of these three numbers or the secondary phone number as the number where the candidate would prefer to be called. You can also enter a fax number. For each number, type the international prefix, the phone number, and (if applicable) the extension.
   Secondary Contact Information	If you want mail to be sent to a secondary address, or if you know that you may reside at a different address for a while, you can enter secondary address information, including the dates during which you want mail to be sent to that the address.
   Secondary Phone Number	You can enter a secondary phone number and select it as the preferred phone number. Note You can select only one phone number on this page as a preferred phone number.

5. To update your preferences information, expand the Preferences section, click Update Preferences, update your preferences, and click Save.

   Preferences include the type of job you are looking for, your salary expectations, when you would be available to start, and whether you would be willing to travel or relocate. This is basic information a recruiter would need to include you in a search for potential candidates for a specific position.
   
   You can also select a Point Of Origin, which specifies where you would have travel from in case your position will require traveling.

   Note This is where you would also indicate whether you are a current or former employee.

6. Update your talent attributes:

   For any section, click Add to add an item,

   or

   Open the item to update or delete it.

   IMPORTANT Always remember to save the data you enter.

   • The Employment History section includes the previous and current jobs that you have held. Make sure to verify the information of any job already entered (through a resume upload). The more information you provide, the better. You can also attach a document if needed.

     Note If you want to attach a document (such as a letter of reference, or employee award), describe the document in Description of Attachment and click Browse to locate and attach the document.

   • Typically, skills refer to tangible skills such as the ability to use a specific tool, whereas competencies refer to intangible abilities such as the ability to multitask, or leadership qualities. However, Do not concern yourself with what our organization considers a competency or a skill. Try to find a matching skill or competency in the selectable field, or type it in the Other field.

   Note If you select what is considered a skill by our organization, you will also be asked to specify where you acquired the skill and when, and when you last used the skill.

   • Credentials are certificates or licenses external to our organization that need to be renewed on a periodic basis, such as a driver's license or a board certification.

     If possible, try to select your credential and credential source from the selectable fields. If none of the options match, type the information in the "Other" field.

     If your credential has a number associated with it, type that number. You must also enter the original credential date.

     If you want to attach a document (such as a copy of your credential), describe the document in Description of Attachment and click Browse to locate and attach the document.

   • Achievements can be any honor or personal deed that you would like recruiters to be aware of (book, medal, and so on).

     If you want to attach a document (such as a copy of your achievement), describe the document in Description of Attachment and click Browse to locate and attach the document.

   • References are the name of people who are willing to provide you with references. If you do not provide the information at this time, you will probably contact you to provide references after you have applied for a position.

7. If the Identification section is visible to you, you can add identification information at this time. This is not information that would have been uploaded from your resume.

8. If the Travel Documents section is visible to you, you can add travel document information at this time. This is not information that would have been uploaded from your resume.

9. If the Dependents section is visible to you, you can add dependents at this time. This is not information that would have been uploaded from your resume.

   When you add and save a dependent, a Dependent ID and/or a Travel Documents tab may become visible. Add this information, if applicable.
