How to maximize the Scout

A resume will not bring in scouts

Employers scout based on the information provided in your profile.

The more details and keywords you include, the higher your chances are of being discovered by employers.

Remember—employers search among a vast pool of Yaaay users, so enriching your profile is the best way to take advantage of the Scout.

Uploading a resume will not lead to scouts, because employers gain access to your resume only after you hit the “Apply” button.

Your personal information will not be disclosed to companies until you click “Apply” in the scout message.
