Employment Interviews at the APPAM
Fall Conference |
 |
Many employers conduct interviews on an informal basis during the APPAM Fall
Research Conference. APPAM helps to facilitate the interviews through special
features on its comprehensive career website,
These features are active starting in August of each year, and including the
following:
- Persons seeking employment may indicate their availability to be interviewed
by indicating such in their account profile on www.PublicServiceCareers.org.
Their resume listings on the site will include the APPAM logo.
- Employers wishing to interview at the conference also may indicate such
in the settings for their job listings on the site. Their job listings will
include the APPAM logo.
- Employers who post at least one job on the site and connect it to the conference
interviews then may view resumes and make contact with job seekers at no
additional charge. All other employers will have to pay a fee to contact
interested job seekers.
Here are some additional instructions and tips for job seekers and employers to best make use of this service.
Job Seekers: When setting up a career profile, job seekers
may want to use the "Additional Notes" field at the very end of the online form to enter
information on publications, research interests, portions of a resume or other information.
Alternatively, instructions to employers can be put into "Additonal Notes" regarding how to
get a complete resume. Job seekers also may set up a plain-text resume to use when it is possible
to apply for jobs by email.
Employers: A link to the interviews at the APPAM conference may
be added to existing jobs on the site or included with new jobs. If an employer already has one or more jobs
active on the site, it will be necessary to login to the same employer account through which each
job was posted. Please note that it is not possible for an employer to indicate availability for
interviews through APPAM without having at least one active job on the site.
APPAM continues to work closely with the host for the job listing service to
upgrade the functions that support Fall Conference interviews. Please note that
APPAM offers this solely as a helpful service and makes no gurantees that employers
will find suitable candidates or that job seekers will be invited to interviews.
For further informaton, please visit www.PublicServiceCareers.org starting in August
for detailed instructions regarding linking jobs and resumes to the Fall Research
Conference interview process.
