Resumix is an automated system that stores resumes.
Many Federal Government positions require on-line applications, resume builders, or RESUMIX formats which are scanned into computers. These on-line formats can be very restricting, and if you are not computer-savvy, can also be very difficult to do correctly. And if not done correctly, your application will be rejected.
These federal resumes and applications are searched electronically for the key words required for the position. If you do not include the right keywords, your resume will not be one of those selected for further review.
Once your resume is selected electronically, it is then reviewed manually - and compared to all the others that were selected. Therefore, it is important that the resume include all relevant keywords AND read well. The restrictive nature of many of the on-line formats (limited length for describing jobs and experience) makes this difficult. The more restrictive, the more difficult this is.
