Blinding a resume is a great way to keep an alternate copy of a resume on file in PCRecruiter. This is used to remove the candidate’s contact information and ensure confidentiality.
Note: If a blinded resume is found on a record it will be the resume selected by default when sending as an email
- Display an individual’s name record
- Select the Resume icon from the navigation toolbar
- Choose the Blinded charm from the left side of the screen
- You will be presented with three options for blinding
- Upload New Document – select the file you would like to upload as the blinded copy (Useful if you already have a blinded copy saved to your machine)
- Blind Current Resume – Will open the current resume in your default word processing software to edit

- Save your changes – when saving you are actually uploading your changes to the server
