I want to customise my resume for two very different jobs with the same employer. How will I be able to do that if I submit one resume electronically?
Depending on the computer program that supports the job listings you are pursuing, your second resume may be screened out to prevent duplication. On the other hand, some programs screen by the skills related to the specific job, so your resume may get to the right person. It’s hard to know. So customisation is not even the issue here. At this point we recommend sending two different versions of your resume, customised for each job and make it clear you are applying for two different positions. We will be reporting regularly on this issue of resume screening because it differs from company to company.
