2. How would I get employers to notice me?
Once you’ve signed up, you’ll be prompted to create a resume profile. As a minimum fill out the mandatory fields and click preview to see how it looks, once you’re happy with it you can go ahead and post your resume. The more information and details (such as a softcopy of your resume, scanned copies of your certificates, scanned copy of OKU card etc.) you provide in your resume, should you apply for a job would definitely improve your chances of getting a positive response from employers.
By checking the “Let Employers Find My Resume” checkbox, your resume becomes searchable and by unchecking it can only be accessed by employers whose job postings you have applied for. Please note, if you were to hide your resume, it will not only be unsearchable but it cannot be viewed by any employer.

Once logged in, click the “Apply Now” button within the job post.
