While fraud is prevalent online, it tends to be focused on companies that derive their business from online purchases. As Provider is primarily a free service, and the contact information found in a resume can just as easily be located elsewhere (e.g. telephone listings), you can be assured that posting your resume on Provider is a safe way to conduct a job search and manage your career. However, you do need to be mindful about the type of information you include on your resume. For example, the following personal information should never be included:

• National Identification Number
• Driver’s license number
• Bank account information
• Credit card information
• Passwords
• Date of birth

NOTE: You should also never share the personal information listed above with a prospective employer until you are confident that the employer and employment opportunity is legitimate.

Posting Your Resume

Do you want employers to find your resume on Provider? Are you currently employed and need to be more careful about who is able to see your posted resume? Not all job searches are alike, so Provider allows flexibility in how you post your resume. Your resume options are described below:

Public Resumes

Choosing the Visible to employers profile/resume option allows employers to find your resume during resume searches. Because employers may search for candidates before they post a job on Provider, choosing the public option will give you the widest possible access to job opportunities. Public resumes are viewable by employer customers — not other Provider candidate members.

Confidential Resumes

Prefer to keep your job search more private? Choosing the Hide contact details option saves your profile/resume as public, but hides your contact info. Employers will be able to contact you via a confidential Provider email address. You can then view the employer’s message and decide whether to respond. Please note that if you apply online with your posted resume, your contact details will be included so the employer can contact you.

Private Resumes

Choosing the Not visible to employers profile/resume option will prevent employers from accessing your resume on Provider during resume searches. However, you can still search for jobs and apply online using your private resume.

Important: With a resume not visible to employers, you may receive messages in your Provider account because your resume fits an employer’s search. Don’t worry; your resume is still private. Because Provider can see both your resume and the employer’s search, we can match resumes to searches without disclosing any information to the employer. If you reply to that message, the employer will receive your contact information and resume.
