Tips on filling in the resume form
Email: this is vital, as it is a means for both us and employers to contact you. Should you change your e-mail address change please change it in your online resume.
login and password: choose your own - it can be anything! You can change them whenever you want by deleting your current choice and typing in something new then clicking update at the bottom of the form.
Industy Experience: The colored diamonds stand for your length of industry experience. They are a quick guide to your experience and employers find this tool very useful when searching. Please only use if applicable!
Address: This is confidential and does not appear on your resume. It is simply
for our records.
Phone numbers: In most cases employers will contact you by phone. You can choose whether your contact numbers are visible or hidden. If you choose to keep
them hidden employers may only contact you via email.
Primary and Secondary Job Types: these are your two main job types, the
two areas in which you would most like to work. (You can, if you prefer, list a primary job type and leave the secondary job type blank.) These are displayed alongside your name. This provides employers with a quick and easy method of distinguishing a freelancers main area of work. Primary and
Secondary job types do not affect searches.
About Me: this section is for you to promote yourself to employers. You
might wish to emphasise certain career experience, or lay down your intended
career path. Really, its a means for an employer to tell what you've done
and what you're hoping to do, and for you to communicate your objectives.
Credits/Employment History: There is a limit of 4,000 characters (approx.
1.5 sides of A4) in this field. (You can upload a Word version of your resume
which can be of any length and would include your personalised formatting -
see Help page when youre logged in.) As with the About Me section, you
have free rein over what you write. Here are a couple of suggestions... but
they are by no means absolute, as different people have different
approaches... If you're very experienced and have many credits you might not
wish to go into too much detail about each particular past position. If you're
more junior you might wish to write a few sentences on your previous positions within marketing. If you have no past employment within the marketing industry, put
in your other work experience, and in your About Me section explain how the skills you have acquired can translate from one industry to the marketing industry.
Skills : regard these as areas of knowledge rather than areas of
expertise.
Other Skills: You can type in any other skills not already listed. Employers can run text searches that pick out these words (e.g. palaeontology, dentistry).
Job Types: You can tick more than one job type, but we ask that you fill
in your main two job types (see Primary and Secondary job types above). It is from these that searches are run. Several job types may be applicable. Select the job types most suitable to you. You can choose a
maximum of four. For junior freelancers
we recommend that you tick the main job areas you are interested in working.
