When I upload my resume and cover letter the site says success, but if I check my profile they don't show. Is that what everyone else has experienced?

My wife and I are in a ten day windown between another ferry flight for me and a trip for her so we are working pretty hard on the water system for our new farm (we bought a couple of adjoining properties here to come to 20 acres...they have multiple wells, but the "deep well" was some distance from where we wanted the home site...so

Anyway normally I only check the phone about every hour or two (since one time laying electrical cables I found my phone had decided to join the 4/0 wire 3 feet under ...just before we covered it up) but now its where I can hear it ring and the IPAD with the email is looked at whenever it dings...nothing like anticipation. I assume they only have a thousand or so apps by now...

Good luck

That's weird. The resume and cover letter upload area is just blank...I've tried .doc and .pdf, I did have a fakepath issue with safari but seemed to take care of it by going to firefox. Wish I could talk to someone at VX and see if they actually received my documents.

VX is big on doing everything via email. Expect the interview invite via email.

Hmm. How about manually copy/pasting the resume and CV into the respective fields, instead of uploading documents?

I did that in the resume text box but wanted to attach it and the cover letter. It's a choose file icon no copy/paste option there.

It's all good. All the info from my sparkling resume is there just not as visually attractive.

My resume...I did not have good luck with just uploading it. The cover seemed to upload OK...

I got an interview invite. Who else will be there Tuesday?

The email says the dress code is business attire. To me that means suit and tie, but from what I have read, every one has been showing up in a sport coat and slacks. Whats the deal here?

Curious when did you take the questionnaire and when did your interview invite come? I have been told by everyone that got hired that suit and tie are not the norm.
