Yeah - that upload function is pretty sucky.
What I do is fill out their online resume-builder thing.
Consider your issue with the PDF's in another thread in which, like
everyone, suggested that you have them fill in a form instead of xmitting
via PDF.
Formatting, extracting and indexing randomly formatted data from a couple of
million different people's idea of a "resume" is a dead-end.
If you want to get into the system well, ya gotta fill out the forms.
God help you with this - because it takes DAYS to get it all in there just
right... if not weeks or months.
Same thing with CareerBuilder and the rest.
