Frequently Asked Questions

Why should I submit applications as PDF instead of Word?
PDF preserves your formatting on every device. Word documents can look different depending on the recipient's version of Word, installed fonts, and operating system.
Will my resume formatting be preserved?
Yes. Fonts, images, tables, margins, and layout are all preserved exactly as they appear in your Word document.
