Like many organizations,
SOUTHLAND uses an electronic database to efficiently route resumes. Our recruiters search the database
using keywords and phrases that describe the specific skills and knowledge required for a
particular opening. It is important, therefore, that you include any relevant
terms and acronyms in your resume.
We prefer to receive resumes
electronically as they are processed more quickly and accurately. While special formatting may look nice,
it can cause errors in getting your resume into the database correctly.
Therefore, it is to your
advantage to submit a plain text resume - avoid special formatting, bold type,
underlining, and fancy fonts. We
suggest 12 point type in Helvetica, Times, or New Century, all left-aligned.
To help you prepare a resume that
meets our system requirements, we've provided a sample resume.
Cover letters are welcome, but please do not send
theses/dissertations, research papers, references, or lists of publications.

applications have a "Save as ASCII text" option).
U.S. mail: If you're unable to
use one of the electronic options above, you may submit your
resume via the postal service.
We will send you an email letter within three to four weeks of receiving your resume. l
