2- How do I send you my resume?

You could input your resume online in the format available at jobsnet.com.pk by clicking on the link -Input your CV online.Alternatively you could send a hard copy (on paper) by post.Please do not send us your CV on a floppy as the floppy could get corrupted in route and would delay the processing of the resume.Also please do not e-mail it to us at any of the email addresses listed at our site since it may get lost amongst the 1000s of emails that we receive every day.

3- In what format do I send you my resume?

It is preferable to send us your resume in the format available online as mentioned above by clicking on the link-Input your CV- on the jobsnet home page.This has a character limit so keep that in mind while you input your CV online.You could study the format offline and input later.This format helps maintain brevity of your CV which benefits you and the recruiter.You get to focus your experience within the specified format.The recruiters get the information that is relevant quickly, as they do not and will not scan through a detailed CV for short listing.A detailed CV can be provided by you later once you have been short listed.

If you prefer to send a hard copy, you could send it in the format that you have prepared.However, there are two points to note in this context:

*- Inputting your CV online reduces processing time (no additional time taken in data entry).

*- The content is what you input and does not require editing at our end, so you get what you want.

4- How do I make the payment?

Sending us your resume either by inputting online or by post is the first step.It does not tell us what to do with your resume unless you specify which service you want.Anyone can input their resume/CV which is a free facility.However, without corresponding payment for a particular service your resume will just be part of our internal database.This could be accessed by special clients, but to proactively contact recruiters, it is better that you use our paid services.Once you decide the services you want you can inform us along with sending us your payment by local cheque/payorder (for Karachi customers) or Demand Draft (for customers residing outside Karachi), in the name of Jobsnet.com.pk or Dhedhi's Human Resource Training and Placement Centre.

NOTE:  currently we are not accepting online payments.As soon as we start receiving online payment we will intimate on our web site.

5- How do I know that the service I asked for has been completed?

Once the service that you asked for is completed, we will send you an e-mail to inform about this status.

6- What is the success rate of getting a job through these resume services?

The success rate of getting a job through these resume services varies greatly.There are examples of people who have received interview calls in 48 hours, others who have received 20 to 25 interview calls and still others who have received only 3-4 interview calls.

The success rate depends to a great extent on 3 factors i.e.the quality of your CV, the market position of your skill set, and your performance in the interview.

These resume services cannot guarantee a job but they maximise your chances of finding the right job by ensuring that your CV reaches the maximum number of recruiters who will contact you when your CV matches a job profile available with them.
