Tips from a BECU Recruiter
- Tailor your résumé to the position you're seeking. The more you demonstrate how you made, saved or achieved something, the more compelling it is to a recruiter or hiring manager
- Check your spam/junk folders for BECU or recruitment vendor emails
- Wait 2 – 3 weeks for a response. Check the Careers Portal to see if the status of your application has been updated before reaching out to BECU
- Ensure voicemail is set up, not full and accepting new voicemails on your phone
- Use an email address that is appropriate for work
