Help recruiters find you by making your resume and profile searchable
Make your resume and profile searchable, which means recruiters may contact you about possible jobs.
To make your resume searchable:
- Sign into USAJOBS.
- Select Documents in the navigation—it will default to display resumes.
- Select the Make searchable box for the resume you want recruiters to see. If your profile is complete, recruiters can see it too.
If you want to remove your resume from the resume bank or change which resume is available, you will have to select another resume or delete the resume.
