This is the information the system uses both to identify you and to allow you access to the system.
This page can vary from site to site. Differences can include field names, their order on the page, or existence or lack of section headings.

Update Contact Information with a Resume. Depending on the site you are using, you might have the option to auto-populate your contact information with data captured in your resume. Since a resume is usually required for job submission, you can upload and store your resume and update your contact information in one step. If you have a resume available and want to take advantage of this feature, click Click here to start at the top of the Personal Preferences page. |
E-mail — The address you gave at registration displays here.
|
Has your e-mail address changed? Be sure your e-mail address is current. This is more than just your login name, it is what the system and prospective employers use to send you information. For more information, see the How to Change Your E-mail Address help topic. |
Candidates
who also act as Recruiting Center Administrators
cannot edit their e-mail addresses.
New Password — Use only if you want to change your password. To do this, simply type a new password here. Be sure you re-type it in exactly the same format in the next field. (For security reasons, your current password does not appear in this field.)
Passwords must contain a minimum of 6 and a maximum of 50 alphanumeric characters and cannot contain special characters or spaces.
Verify New Password — Use only if you want to change your password. If you do want to change your password, re-type the password that you entered in the New Password field.
|
Changing your password? The system matches your entry in the New Password field with your entry in the Verify Password field. If the two entries don't match, the system displays an error message and asks you to re-type both entries. This helps ensure that your password is set to the exact character sequence you intend. |
Password Recovery Question — In some career sites, you are required to type a short question to which only you know the correct response. If you ever forget your password, what you enter here, along with your entry in the next field, will be used by the system to create a new password for you.
Password Recovery Answer — If supported in this career site, type the correct answer to your entry in the Password Recovery Question field above. If you forget your password, you will be required to supply this answer exactly as defined here before the system will email you a new password.
