| 1: Why do you require personal contact information to be removed from uploaded resumes? |
| HIPPA regulations require for employers to offer interviews based on merit. By removing personal contact information, an employer makes the decision to offer an interview based solely on your qualifications for the position. When an interview is offered, your personal contact information is then revealed to the employer. |
|
| 2: Do I have to have/disclose my disability to use your website? |
| Linkages was founded to help local agencies find meaningful employment for people with disabilities. For that reason we inform you that any job seeker who uses this site to find employment is disclosing to their employer that they have a disability. The exact nature of the disability will not be disclosed, however any reasonable accomodations that should be made by the employer should be disclosed in the job seeker profile under the heading "List any accomodations ..." |
|
| 3: If I enter my personal contact information, will potential employers be able to see it? |
| No, your personal contact information will be hidden from an employer until they choose to offer you an interview. When the employer offers you an interview, your personal contact information is revealed so the employer may better prepare for your interview. |
|
| 4: If the employer is unable to see my personal contact information, how will they be able to contact me? |
| The website uses an email system that allows for emails to be sent, but hides the actual email address. When an employer takes an interest in a candidate, the candidate is also notified of the activity. |
