Contact Information

This page must start off the application process and prompts for the following pieces of information pulled from multiple areas in Cyber Recruiter.

Page 1: Advanced Resume Extraction
If "Parse from Resume" is turned on then the application process will start with a prompt to upload the applicant's resume. This page is not an option for Express clients. This page does not appear as a section when applying via the Self Service module.

After uploading a resume the system will extract demographics, education, employment, military history, skills and reference information depending on what is in the resume. A duplicate check will be done and if the new resume matches something already in the system a message will appear notifying the applicant that he/she already has a record in the system (see the last section of this page for instructions on updating this message).

If the information cannot be verified (for example, if the duplicate checking is based on email address and the resume does not have an email) a page will display requesting this important information before continuing.

Page 2: Demographics Information
The demographics page will be the first page of data collected and will trigger the Actions which are designated on the Actions tab. If parsing is activated this page will most likely be filled in and the applicant just need to make changes to the page.

This page will have the instruction message on the top of the page, the applicant's demographic information (as determined by the set-up of the Contact Information page in the Self Service module) and the questions activated in the setup as described below.

Page 3: Company Questions
The final page of the "Contact Information" displays the Application and Requisition questions. If no questions are designated to post then this page will be skipped and the process will move to the next designated page in the Application Template.

Any Application Question added via Page Builder and set as "Public" will be displayed on this page. The order of display on the page will be based on the Group assigned and then the Order number within the group assigned.

Any Requisition Question added to the requisition for which this applicant is applying and set as "Public" will be displayed on this page. The order of display on the page will be based on the Group assigned in Page Builder and then the Order number within the group assigned.

The details which are controlled by the page:

Thank You Page

This page MUST be included in the online application process. This page triggers Actions assigned and ensures that the "Actions Done " field is set correctly in the applicant's file. Pages can be added AFTER this page but it is highly recommended that this page be the last page in the process.

Merge fields can be added to the message to make this more of a unique message for the applicant.
