GUIDELINE XIII: Regarding responses from recruiters; In the internet era, where a single user can send hundreds of resumes a day to various recruiters, and where a recruiters job posting on Roadtechs.com may receive hundreds of resumes for a particular job, DO NOT expect that the recruiter will send you a resume receipt response or be updating you on the status of your resume. If your e-mail to the recruiter did not bounce back to you, then the recruiter has received your resume. Any follow-up postings on Roadtechs.com berating recruiters for not "responding" to a users resume submission will be removed.

GUIDELINE XIV: The Roadtechs.com website registration permits the posting of individual jobs, and not the redirecting of traffic via posts to sign up/register/view jobs at another job type website, nor generic postings for the solicitations for resume harvesting. Non-compliance with this criteria will result in denial of access to the Roadtechs.com site and forfeiture of your firms registration fee.

GUIDELINE XV: Submission of a workers resume via an email link on a company’s Roadtechs.com job posting implies interest on the workers part for the job; The recruiter will then evaluate the workers resume and personnel references, and if found to be applicable for the clients jobs' requirements, the recruiter should then contact the worker for a verbal or electronic consent by the worker for the recruiter to present the workers resume to the client. The worker may also request that the recruiter not keep your resume on file. Workers should be particularly aware if they (the worker) have submitted resumes to multiple recruiters for the same job / project: Once a recruiter contacts a worker to begin the process to formally submit a workers resume as described above, it is incumbent upon the worker to inform any subsequent inquiry’s from other recruiters for the same job / project that he/she is already engaged in a submittal process.

GUIDELINE XVI: While the standard Roadtechs.com website registration permits the posting of unlimited jobs, the practice of frequently re-posting the same jobs to the same (or unrelated engineering discipline job board) will not be tolerated. Non-compliance with this criteria may result in denial of access to the Roadtechs.com site and forfeiture of your firm's registration fee.
