At JobSpectrum.org you have the option of putting your resume in our database. You may use our resume builder, paste a text copy of your resume in our Document Manager, or upload an original copy of your formatted resume as well.

If you elect to participate in our searchable resume database your text resume will be used. If you opt to keep your information confidential, it is your responsibility to remove all personal information from your text resume. If this confidential resume is also your primary job application resume, then contact information from your profile will automatically be added to the resume, during the application process. Original formatted resumes and other documents can be included in your profile database, refer to the Document Manager feature at bottom of job application form.

You also have the option of storing your resume in our database, but not allowing it to be searchable by potential employers. Not allowing your resume to be searchable means that you can use it to apply for a job online, but employers and recruiters will not have access to search it through our resume database.

Only approved employers, recruiters, hiring managers, headhunters, and human resource professionals are authorized to search the database. JobSpectrum.org cannot promise that other unauthorized parties will not gain access to it. A visitor may remove his or her resume from the database at any time. However, employers and recruiters who have paid for access to the database, and other parties who have otherwise gained access to the database, may have retained a copy of the resume in their own files or databases. JobSpectrum.org is not responsible for the retention, use, or privacy of resumes by any of such parties while resumes are in the database.
