Login Data

In Job Site and Referral and Job Site Only modes, the candidate does not create a login. A minimum set of data is requested of the candidate in hopes of limiting the number of drop-offs. If the candidate decides to subscribe to Job Alerts we only request their name, email and job category and location interests. When the candidate applies to a job a login must be created on the Career Section. This login allows the candidates to access their applications, review and edit their profile, access messaging, offers and tasks, if relevant. Once logged into the Career Section the candidate can navigate between the job search engine and the Career Section using the My Profile and My Submissions buttons.
