CV Upload & Registration help
I cannot register my CV, can you help?
If you are having challenges registering your CV, here are the steps we suggest taking.
- Is your CV in Microsoft Word (.doc) or Rich Text Format (.rtf)?
If it is not you will need to save it in one of these formats to upload it to CVtrumpet. Word files have the file extension ".doc". Files made in Microsoft Works or other Word Processors are not in this format. These programs may have a feature to "export" your document to Word (.doc) format.
Or, you can save the document as a Rich text File (.rtf).
Please check your programme's documentation for this feature.
- Have you pasted your CV into the text box?
Your CV will need to be pasted into the text box in order for registration to be completed. To do this, select all the text on your CV (Edit, Select All), copy the text (Edit, Copy),
put the cursor into the CV text box (click anywhere in the CV text box), and then paste your CV into the text box (Edit, Paste)
- Do you have the latest version of your browser? Please make sure you have the most up to date version of your Web Browser. We recommend the use of Mozilla Firefox or Internet Explorer. We are also compatible with Netscape Navigator, Opera and AOL browsers.
- Are cookies turned on?
Cookies are a small file store on your computer that stores information about you that allow you to access all features of the site. You may have trouble registering or logging in, if you have disabled cookies. Please enable them on your browser.
- Have you entered all fields?
Please make sure you have filled in all fields correctly to make sure that the registration process can complete.
- Have you registered before?
If you cannot register with your desired username and/or e-mail address it is possible that you have registered previously and have forgotten your password. You can retrieve your password by using the “forgot password” feature on the login screen, otherwise you will have sign up with a different username/e-mail.
