Resume Requirements:
The fee to post a resume is $10. Send an
email with your resume attached in either Word or Word Perfect format
to frontdesk@dcba.org or copy
it to a CD or floppy disk and mail or drop off at the bar office. The
resume must be in a digital format and will be kept in our resume bank
for 90 days or until you tell us to remove it. Resumes will stay in
our pool for 90 days for this $10 fee. You can extend for another 90
days for and additional $10. Updated or revised resumes may be submitted
once during each 90 day period at no additional fee.
Mail a check to DCBA, 126 S. County Farm
Rd., Wheaton, Il 60187. Or, use the online DCBA Store at http://www.dcba.org/store/main_store.asp
to pay by Visa, Master Card, Discover or American Express via paypal.
Resumes will not be posted until the fee is received.
Resumes may be posted in a "blind
box" format for an additional $15 fee. You will be asked to provide
a short paragraph to be posted on the website with a blind box number
assigned by the bar office. Interested parties will be asked to email
their request for your resume to the DCBA office, referring to the box
number. The complete resume will then be emailed directly to the firm.
Please notify the DCBA office as soon as
you have secured an employment position so that we can pull your resume
from our list. Hard copies of all resumes will also be distributed as
part of our resume packet to interested law firms.
Additional notes: Resume background must
be white, with black text for best results. Legal Staff resumes should
indicate whether you seek a full time or part time position. If you
wish to include a cover letter, please make it part of a single file
along with the resume.
