- Why can I see multiple resumes for each applicant?
Job seekers can submit more than one resume, and you can see all of them. Use the most recently dated resume.
- Are job seekers matched to my job?
No, all job seekers must apply for specific positions to be considered for employment at Purdue University. They are not automatically matched to positions. The Talent Acquisition Team member handling the position reviews the resumes and forwards those of applicants who meet the minimum requirements as stated in the job description.
- What do the gold stars by the applicant's name mean?
Please disregard. The gold star is a feature of the system that is not currently being used.
- What do the red flags by the applicant's name mean?
Attention indicator flags (AIF) or red flags indicate that action has not been taken on an applicant. Ideally, all applicants who have not been viewed by the hiring supervisor or search committee member will have a red flag by their names. Once viewed, the flag will be removed.
