How you will be rated: HR reviews your documents and questionnaire responses to check qualifications, then places you in the best qualified, highly qualified, or qualified group. Incomplete packages, resumes over two pages, or overstated experience can result in an ineligible rating.
Tips for this job:
- Keep your resume to two pages or less, because longer resumes are removed from consideration.
- List the hours worked per week for every job, since missing hours can make your application incomplete.
