  3. Can I view only the most recent positions that have been posted?

  5. How can I stay informed about new career opportunities?

  5. Do I have to fill out a new profile each time I apply for a position?

  8. Please allow some time for recruiters to review your application. Our team of recruiters will assess the applications received and will contact those applicants who are chosen for an interview.

My Account

  1. Do I need to apply for a position to create a profile?
  2. No, you do not need to apply for a specific position before creating a profile. Access the My profile page, and follow the steps for creating or updating your profile. Your information will be saved in the system, and, as recruiters perform searches on the database, they will immediately have access to your profile. Keep your profile up to date to ensure your skills are appropriately matched to new career opportunities.

  3. How can I upload my resume?
  4. You can upload your resume or other documents when you create a new profile or via the My document page upon logging in. There are three ways to upload documents:

    1. Using local files from your own operating system
    2. Using Dropbox online storage
    3. Using Google Drive online storage

    When uploading documents, you need to define the type of document that you are uploading.

  5. I can’t log onto my profile. I receive an invalid password or authorized users only message. What do I do?
    1. Click on Forgot your password? above the log-in button. Enter your email address in the field provided, and click Send. An email containing the reset password link will be sent automatically to the email address provided.
    2. If you are still experiencing problems with the new password, type in the password rather than cutting and pasting it from the email that was sent to you. Sometimes an extra space can be copied by mistake, which will render your password invalid.
    3. Other possibilities:
      • Enable your cookies
      • Delete your cookies
      • Update your browser to the latest version
  6. How do I make my profile inactive?
  7. In the event that you wish to conduct a job search in the future, profiles are made inactive rather than cancelled or removed. You are able to make your profile inactivate so that the recruiters know you are not looking for a position. Simply log on to your profile, go to “Please indicate your status” and change your status from “Actively searching” to “Not searching.” Should you decide you want to look for a job again, whether it be in a few months or a few years, you can log on to your profile again, reactivate it and update it. If you have any more questions, please contact us at candidate.njoynhelp@cgi.com or 1-877-427-7717, Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. (ET), excluding holidays.
