Once you are posted to the 3rd party career web sites, you may receive email from the 3rd party career web sites when Job Agent matches are found. It is your responsibility to refine the job search criteria used by the Job Agents, if you desire to do so.

After being posted to the 3rd party career web sites, your Real-Time Resume Posting Report clearly shows which sites have Job Agents setup. The Real-Time Resume Posting Report provides links for you to login to the 3rd party career web sites where you can customize these Job Agents.

This greatly reduces the amount of Spam you would receive at your Personal Email Address.
