I don't see how case would have anything to do with submitting a resume for a job posting... you'd think the headhunter would have their email registered with the site, and your resume (be it text or attachment) would just get forwarded on with a "This guy responded to that job posting" note from the site... On a side note, regarding dice.com... I found a few jobs listed on there by folks in the local office of a semi-national recruiter. I sent notes to each of these people, checking on the jobs, to see if they were still around. Had a nice exchange of notes with one of them (the remainder of the recruiters never responded), at first claiming that the job was filled months ago - yet the job posting had a posting date of two days ago. After claiming she deleted it, the posting was still there (not sure what dice's schedule on updates is, but it often goes into "come back later, we're updating" mode, which affect this posting not in the least bit). She then claimed that she didn't update the posting, had no idea why it had a new date on it, yadda yadda. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jim McCoy" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "CF-Jobs" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, January 11, 2001 2:57 PM Subject: Re: Dice > It seems that headhunter.net and hotjobs.com have less duplication of jobs than DICE. > I can't think of one that has been terrible productive though. There are too many headhunters involved with the boards to make them productive. > One word of caution in working with the boards is dealing with case sensitivity. If you submit a resume through a board for a job you are a perfect fit for and don't hear anything back, take a close look at the job description. > If your resume says "ColdFusion" and the job descriptions says "Coldfusion", that may be why you did not get a response from the headhunter. > I never considered this problem until a friend of mine told me about it. He thought he was a perfect fit for a job. He got an email from the headhunter saying they had no openings that fit his background. He went back to the web site and saw where the job description said "perl" and his resume said "Perl". He made that change, resubmitted the resume and got the job. > > Jim Mc Coy > ----- Original Message ----- > From: Permanent Solutions > To: Jim McCoy > Sent: Thursday, January 11, 2001 3:49 PM > Subject: Dice > > > That's good information to know about Dice Jim.
