How do I submit my resume?

To submit your resume to Wachovia, you must first create a profile.   To create your profile, follow these steps:

  1. On the “Job Search” page, select the "Create/Edit My Profile" link. You will be taken to the “Login” page.
  2. Select the “First time users” link.
  3. Enter your information to complete your profile.

Helpful Tip:   You can save time creating your profile by pasting your resume on the first screen of the profile. Pasting your resume will automatically sort your information into the corresponding fields on your profile (i.e., name, address, education etc.)  There is a maximum limit of 64,000 characters and spaces. You may need to revise your resume if it exceeds the maximum limit allowed.

If you don’t have a resume to paste into the profile, simply select the “Create my resume” link and enter your information on the screens that follow.

Can I submit my resume to Wachovia without applying for a position?

Yes.  However, you are encouraged to search and apply for a specific position so that recruiters can more easily identify you as a candidate. 

What is the difference between a profile and a resume?

Your profile contains all of the information that is on your resume as well as your job preferences (e.g., geographic locations), your login information, and your equal employment opportunity information (optional).

What if I don't have an email address?

An email address is required. You must set up an email account before you will be able to log in and submit your resume. If you do not currently have an email address, there are many Internet service providers who offer free email accounts.

What if I forget my password?

If you forget your password, select the “Forgot your password?” link on the “Login” page, and enter your email address. Your password will be emailed to you.

What if I change my email address?

If you have a new email address:

  1. Log in using your old email address.
  2. Update your profile with your new email address.

The next time you log in, you will use your new email address.

What is the best way to narrow down my job search results?

The more search criteria you enter, the more specific your results will be. You can narrow your search further by using the words “and”, “not”, and “or” in specific ways, as follows:

Project AND Manager

Using the word “and” will only return search results where all the words you entered are included in either the Job Title or the description.


Project Manager

Using quotation marks (“ ”) will only return search results where the words you entered appear together as a phrase in either the Job Title or the description.


Manager AND NOT Project

Using the words “and not will only return search results where the first word you entered does appear, but the second word does not appear in either the Job Title or the description.


Manager OR Supervisor

Using the word “or” will only return search results where either word you entered appears in the Job Title or the description.

How do I apply for a job?

When you have found a position that you would like to apply for:

  1. Select the “Apply” link to the right of the position.
  2. If you have not previously created a profile, you will be guided through the steps to create one.  If you have an existing profile, review your profile information to make sure that it is accurate and up to date.

If there are pre-qualification questions for the position you selected, enter your answers and click the “Submit” button.

What happens after I apply for a position?
  1. Recruiters will review your profile to see if you are a good fit for the position.  If you are selected for an interview, a Wachovia recruiter will contact you either by email or telephone.
  2. If the status of the position that you applied for changes (i.e., filled, on hold, canceled), you will receive an email notification.

It is critical that you keep your profile information up to date so recruiters can contact you.

How do I use the job cart?

Use the job cart the same way that you would use an online “shopping cart.” Add positions to your job cart so that you can continue to search the job listings and submit an application when your search is complete.

Adding a job to the job cart does not mean that you must apply for that job. You can remove jobs from the job cart at any time.

Why was a job removed from my cart?

If the status of a position in your job cart changes (i.e., filled, on hold, canceled), it will automatically be removed from your job cart.

What is a job agent?

A job agent is a set of search criteria that you want to save for use on an ongoing basis.

For example, you can save a job agent that includes the search criteria looking for:  full-time positions; in Charlotte, NC; containing the keywords “Project Manager.”

Whenever a new position becomes available that matches the search criteria saved in your job agent, an email notification is automatically sent to you.

How do I create a job agent?

To create a job agent, go to the “Search for Jobs” screen.

  1. Enter all of the search criteria you want.
  2. Select “Yes” at the bottom of the screen to save as a job agent.

Enter a name for your job agent (i.e., Project Manager).

Can I update my resume at any time? If so, how?

On the Job Search screen, select the “My Profile” link.  Revise any information contained in your resume or other portions of your profile and your profile will be updated.

Is drug screening mandatory for all new hires?

Yes. Drug screening is a long-standing policy and is one of the many ways we provide a productive and safe environment for our people and our customers.

Will you contact my former employers for references?

Once we have begun the interview process, we may contact your former employers. However, we will not do so without your consent.

Will I be considered for positions other than the one for which I've submitted my resume?

Yes.  Once submitted and processed, your resume goes directly into our database.  Our recruiters nationwide will have access to it.

How long do jobs remain posted online?
Openings are posted online until they are filled, cancelled, or put on hold.
How often do you update your database of open jobs?

The job listing is updated nightly so that jobseekers are viewing the most complete, up-to-date information we can provide.
