FAQ – what are my chances of being found?

FAQ – what are my chances of being found on BeFound.com.au?

An interesting question….  Your chances of being found depend on a number of factors:
  • What industry you work in
  •  How comprehensive your profile is
  • How well your profile is written 
  • How up to date your profile is
Essentially, the better your profile – the better your chances of being found. 

Treat your BeFound profile as your resume and include all relevant work experience, education, skills and foreign languages.  The more information you have in your profile the better.

Make sure your profile title and summary a catchy and descriptive.  This is the first thing that a prospective employer will see so make an impact.

Keep your profile up to date – the last time you updated your profile is displayed when employers search.  They are less likely to request profiles that have not been updated for 6 months.  If you have not updated your profile for over 12 months it will not actually appear in the search result – another good reason to keep it up to date!

Make your profile as good as it can possibly be and your chances of being found will increase dramatically, so why not log on and update your BeFound profile today!
