Usability Instructions
This resource was produced as a PDF because of its versatile
nature. There are a few things to keep in mind though because
there are so many browsers, computer settings and different
platforms. By reading through these brief instructions you
will be able to get more from your CD and inturn a better
handle on applying for a job.
Navigation
The navigation on this CD has tools that are easy to use
but may need to be highlighted so you don't miss out on these
features or get confused.
The options for navigation include:
- The coloured navigation bar that appears on all pages
towards the top of the page.
- The grey column on the left within each section of the
PDF. You can use this navigation to jump through topics
within each section. One point to highlight is that you
need to look at the bottom right of the PDF page and if
you see .... that indicates there is more information from
this section on the next page so use the hook buttons mentioned
in point 3 to view the next page.
- T he hooks that appear within the PDF page towards the
bottom. This way you can go backwards or forwards.
- The PDF icon indicates that you can open a PDF version
of the topic, the MS Word icon indicates that you can open
a Microsoft Word template, and the QuickTime picture links
to a QuickTime movie on the topic.
