How
our Application Process works: |
 |
If you are in the
Baltimore area you can also stop by our
administrative office in the Candler building--111
Market Place, Suite #800, Baltimore, MD 21202,
Monday through Friday at 10 am, 12 pm, and 4 pm. A
7-minute pre-employment video will be shown before
applications are distributed.
If you choose to visit our office building,
please remember that only applicants can be
accommodated in the office area. Please make
arrangements for anyone accompanying you to rejoin
you once you've completed the application process.
|
|
How
soon can I expect to hear from someone regarding my application? |
|
Once all applications have been reviewed a
Hiring Manager will contact a small number of
applicants most closely matching the department's
needs. If you are one of those selected, you will
be contacted directly. If you are not contacted,
you may assume another applicant was selected.
|
|
What
happens to my resume after I submit it for a position? |
|
When you apply your resume to an open position, the appropriate
Recruiter immediately receives an email informing him or her that your
resume is available. Within 3 days, your resume will be reviewed for
minimum qualifications.
|
|
I'd
like to follow up my resume with a hardcopy, where do I send it? |
|
All resumes that we receive in hardcopy are converted to electronic format
and entered into our resume database. The hardcopy is then thrown away. If
you have applied online, we ask that you please do not send us duplicate
resumes as it is unnecessary.

Resume
doesn't look like it will fit within the text
box provided |

How
your resume looks in the text box is not
necessarily how it will look when an employer
views it. After you complete creating/updating
your resume profile, you will be shown a preview
of your information. This format is the same that
employers will see. You will be given an option to
modify your information from the resume review
screen. |

HTML when formatting your resume
within the text box |
|
Do not use HTML when submitting your resume. Your
resume will be viewed by recruiters with widely
varying screen dimensions, including Palm Pilots.
Your resume might be converted into straight ASCII
text and imported into a database or resume
management software. |

tune your job search by using specific keywords in the Keyword Search. If
these keywords are in any part of a job, the
search will return those jobs.

that include either marketing or business
administration or both.
- Example:
Business Administration
These words together result in job
descriptions that include both words in the
order you type them in.

Business Administration and marketing and
entry level
These words result in job descriptions that
include all of these words.
