How and when do employers receive my self-managed credential file?
You, as the applicant, are responsible for supplying your credential file when requested by the employer. Typically this occurs during the application process. It is important to follow the process the employer indicates in the job posting. When in doubt as to what information the employer would like, contact him/her. All application materials must be submitted in the format requested by the employer. If the employer requests that all materials be submitted electronically, do not send paper copies. The employer may discard your information. If the employer requests that application material be submitted via U.S. mail, copy or download materials and place all materials in a 9×12 mailing envelope. Type the address label. We recommend you send materials with return receipt requested. Keep a record of where, when, and to whom you have sent your application materials.
