In your search criteria, make sure phrases are in the “phrase
search” area. Phrases cannot be searched if just placed in
"keywords" box.
[top]
13. How
do I get better search results?
- Begin your search as broadly as possible and narrow it down
as you go. Select as few options as possible on the first search.
You might try beginning with one or two broad keywords. For instance,
instead of 'estimator, commercial, hotel, ' plus radius search
of 25 miles to your zip code, begin with 'estimator' plus either
a wider radius search or just select the state of interest.
Run the first search. When you get an idea of the range of results,
narrow your results down by running the search again in a certain
city or with an additional keyword or an additional option selected.
Add options one by one until you end up with the best set of
results.
- When searching for commonly abbreviated terms, try searching
for both the abbreviation and the spelled out term - for instance,
'HR' and 'Human Resources'.
- Try leaving out special characters and punctuation

Alert and how does it work?

Are all construction contractors and subcontractors subject
to the laws enforced by OFCCP?
All contractors and subcontractors who hold a Federal or federally-assisted
construction contract in excess of $10,000 will be subject to regulatory
requirements under one or more of the laws enforced by OFCCP depending
upon the amount of the contract. Once it has been determined that
a contractor or subcontractor is subject to OFCCP jurisdiction, the
regulations implementing the civil rights requirements enforced by
OFCCP apply to all of the contractor's or subcontractor's employees
who are engaged in on site construction, including those construction
employees who work on a non-Federal or non-federally assisted construction
site.

25. What is an eFax?
An eFax allows job seekers the ability to send their resume
by fax while efficiently placing the resume in an email message addressed
to you showing you that the resume came from ConstructionJobs.com.
When we receive an eFax
resume from a candidate, we will upload the resume to the appropriate
eFax folder within your account as a PDF file and send a copy to
you via email. The eFax number is a toll free number minimizing the
expense for the job seeker. Using this service will mean no
busy signals, no lost faxes and no fax machine out of paper; this
makes it easier on the job seeker and you.
26. I still have a question
or problem not addressed here.
