I believe many people have an account with Jobstreet.com where they keep their resumes and update it from time to time. Mine is there too.
Sometimes I use it to apply to other jobs not posted on the website. However, I will think twice now.
I had previously used the “email resume” function on the website. Honestly, I have no idea how my resume or CV will appear on the recipient’s email. Right now I am pretty sure the Jobstreet logo is in there somewhere.
This is bad because that shows I did not put in effort to produce a proper application to the potential employer. I did it the lazy way by sending it out from Jobstreet.
Today I wanted to print out my resume. Guess what? The page is printed out exactly like the Print Preview on web browsers. The Jobstreet logo and ads on the website got printed out too. This is very bad.
Then I tried the “save resume in .doc” function. To my horror, the alignment came out all wrong in the document. No way! I’m not going to use this for my job applications.
So Jobstreet is only good for applying jobs on their website. I am not going to use the resume features on the site anymore.
I have found some other site that allows me to deposit my resume, provides templates and allows exporting to various formats.
When I’m done tonight, I will share with you the results.
