Q: Why should I use ResumeArrow.com?

A: ResumeArrow is one of the best ways to get in front of many recruiters at once.  In the past, job seekers who wanted to reach lots of recruiters would send their resume by mail which is costly and time consuming.  ResumeArrow lets job seekers reach recruiters quickly, inexpensively and effectively.  By getting your resume into a recruiter's e-mail inbox, the recruiter sees your resume right away and often recruiters will take action immediately and respond with an inquiry for further information or even a job opportunity.

Q: Can I keep my current employer from receiving my resume?

A: Because third party recruiters are signed up for our service, it is not possible to block certain employers from receiving your resume.  Recruiters generally work with many employers so it would not be practical for us to ask the recruiters not to share certain resumes with certain employers.

Q: How will employers and recruiters contact me?

A: Employers and recruiters will contact you with the information you provide when you sign up for ResumeArrow.

Q: What kind of results can I expect?

A: Results vary, and depend mainly on your work history, education, salary, and geographic requirements. Recruiters typically respond right away to resumes that appear to match a current open position that they're working on filling.  If they don't have any positions that match at the moment, most recruiters will add your resume to a database that they'll search for future job openings.  Keep in mind most recruiters work on up to 10 open positions at a time. For example, if your resume is sent to 1,000 recruiters, you could be considered for up to 10,000 jobs!

Q: I do NOT want to relocate. Do you have employers and recruiters in my area?

A: Yes!  We can send your resume only to recruiters who work in the state you live in if you wish.  When you sign up for ResumeArrow, you can specify that you're not interested in relocating.

Q: I WANT to relocate. Can you direct my resume to the areas I prefer?

A: Yes!  We offer you the ability to select up to 3 geographic preferences at no additional charge. Your resume will only go to those recruiters and employers who work in the area(s) in which you currently live or wish to live.

Q: Do you have recruiters looking for recent graduates?

A: Yes!  Many recruiters work with new graduates, especially newly graduated MBA's. Keep in mind though that most job openings are for people who have some experience, so individuals with work experience will generally have better results.

Q: Can I send my resume in MS Word format?

A: Your resume can only be sent in plain text format. Many employers and recruiters do not accept attachments due to the large file size and also because attachments can contain viruses.
