| Question 1) | I already have a login for AAMI. Do I need to create another? |
Answer |
Yes. You need to create a login for the AAMI Career Center. This can be the same login you use elsewhere on AAMI's web site. If you forget a login that you created go to question 6. |
| Question 2) | What does "keep my information confidential" mean? |
Answer |
If you choose to have your information kept confidential, potential employers will not be able to see your name, address, phone number, or e-mail address that are listed in your profile. Their responses will be routed to you through the system, and forwarded to your e-mail account. Please note, if you wish to have a confidential resume, you will need to manually remove the contact information from the resume you paste into the text box. |
| Question 3) | How can I copy my resume into the online form? |
Answer |
First, go to the Edit Resume page. Step 2 of the editing process provides a text box into which you can paste your resume. Simply open your resume and copy your resume (Edit|Select All and Edit|Copy). Click in the text box and paste your resume (Edit|Paste). Try using the paste key command, command-V for Macintosh, Ctrl+V for Windows. Be sure to click in the text box before pasting. You should see a cursor in the box. Remember, if you are posting a confidential resume, make sure contact information is removed from the resume. |
| Question 4) | I have applied for a job or multiple jobs, but have not heard from any employers. Will my applications be acknowledged? |
Answer |
After your resume has been e-mailed to a specific employer,it is their responsibility to contact you. Some employers contact every applicant, but many are extremely busy and can only contact applicants that they are interested in interviewing. Please note that jobs remain posted on the site until they are removed by the employer. |
| Question 5) | May I mail my resume to the employer? |
Answer |
Employers typically post jobs online to avoid print applications. If they choose to allow interaction with applicants, their contact information will be listed in the job listing. |
| Question 6) | I forgot the password for my account. Do I have to start over? |
Answer |
No. When you see the box to log in to your account, click on "Forgot your password?". We will be happy to send your login and password information to you. Just enter your e-mail address and it will be on its way. |
| I just accepted a job offer and am no longer looking for a job; can I remove my resume from the Career Center? | |
Answer |
Congratulations! We suggest you keep your resume in the database so you don't have to start from scratch should you need it again. There is a checkbox labeled "Visible" on the account page. You can make your resume invisible to others by deselecting the checkbox. |
