How do I know if D&E Communications received my resume?
When you hit the "submit resume" button on the online resume tool, you will be taken to a confirmation screen that reads:
"Thank you for submitting your resume and for your interest in a career opportunity with D&E Communications. We will review the information to determine if your skills and experience match our needs for this position. If so, you will be contacted for further follow-up. Your interest in D&E Communications, Inc., is appreciated, and we wish you every success in your search for employment.?
I tried to submit my resume using the online tool, but the web page indicated there was an error. What should I do?
Occasionally our server or your server hits a snag, causing an error. If this happens to you, please try to submit your resume again using the online tool. Your resume will most likely be successfully submitted on your second try.
Will a representative from D&E Communications notify me if the job is filled or if I make it to the next step in the recruitment process? I have submitted my resume for several openings and have heard nothing.
A representative of the Human Resources Department will contact you if the hiring manager is interested in your candidacy any further. At times it can take 2-4 weeks to be contacted.
I'd like to be able to include a cover letter with my resume, addressed to the appropriate individual. How can I find out the name of the appropriate individual?
All resumes go to a central database and are sorted by job opening. It is not necessary to address a cover letter to a specific individual. If you are applying for multiple positions, your cover letter will only reflect the most recent position you applied for.
What if a position I am interested in is not listed on the Careers page? Can I submit a resume anyway?
Only resumes sent in response to a specific open position are considered. We recommend you periodically visit our Careers page to see an updated list of current job opportunities.
Why can't I submit my resume via U.S. Mail or fax?
We receive hundreds of resumes, and it can take up to a month to process a resume that is submitted via U.S. mail or fax. Resumes received via our online tool reach the database almost instantaneously. You could miss the window of opportunity for a position because of the processing delay.
I would like to complete an employment application.
Employment applications are only used when candidates are actually interviewed for a position. When you come in for an interview, you will be given an application to fill out. Otherwise, applications are not used; your resume is our record of your interest in employment.
I submitted my resume through the online tool, but I'd like to mail it to you just to make sure you received it.
If you received the confirmation message, you can be sure we received your resume. Sending multiple resumes is discouraged. The resume database gets bogged down with duplicate resumes, which can delay the processing of your resume.
How long are job postings generally on the web site? Are they posted for a specific amount of time, or until the job is filled?
A position remains on the D&E Communications web site until it is filled.
