SURVEY SAYS


Dude, you’ve gotten your foot in the door!

 

One source in sales gives the following advice: “It’s nearly impossible to get into Dell by simply sending in your resume from the street.  Dell has this sort of ‘buy and try’ system worked out with a temp agency known as Spherion.  [It] screens and tests candidates and then hires them on as contract workers for a set ‘per hour’ pay rate, and if you work out well and do your job, you will get a permanent job offer from Dell after about four to six months of contracting with Spherion.”

Tips from the inside

It’s not just a career, it’s a Dell!

 

The careers page on Dell’s website provides information on positions available at Dell the world over.  The Dell careers site for the U.S. provides information on career paths in sales, customer service, IT, engineering, manufacturing and business.  Job seekers, once they have selected their career path, can search open positions by function, location and keyword.  To apply, they must first fill out a profile as well as an assessment questionnaire.  In order for applications to stand out, Dell advises job seekers to put as many keywords and abbreviations, and as much industry jargon as possible in their resumes.
