You can also apply for jobs at Dell through their hiring website. If you do choose to use their site instead of ours, don't forget to come back to your StartWire account and tell us about your application so we can help you keep an accurate record of where and when you applied. Maintaining an organized record of where you applied is one of the most effective ways to successfully find a job, and we're committed to providing you with the tools you need to do so.

The Dell Application Process

For this application guide, we applied for a position as a Software Development Engineer. While the application process is the same for most positions, your experience may vary a little bit depending on the position that you apply for.

Before you can apply for a position at Dell, you will need to create an account on their hiring site. Creating an account is simple, and will only take a minute of your time. To register, you will need to provide a username, an account password, your email address, and an answer to a security question.

Once your account is created, you will have the opportunity to upload your resume. Providing your resume is optional at this point, but uploading it can be a great time-saver. Dell will read through your resume and use the information it finds to fill in many of the application fields for you. If you do choose to upload your resume, make sure that you check all of the application fields for accuracy. While Dell's program worked perfectly for us, it's possible that it could stumble over some resume formatting and put some information in the wrong spot. It would stink to miss out on a job because their program made an error, so make sure that you check everything twice. If you choose not to provide your resume at this point, that's ok -- you can enter in all of your information manually.

Over the course of the application, Dell will ask you to provide many different pieces of personal information including your name, home address, phone number, email address, education, and work experience. Before you begin the application, make sure that you have accurate start and end dates for both your education and work history. While it's easy to assume that our memory's are perfect, that often isn't the case. Dell will very likely verify these dates before a job offer is made, so you will want to make sure that all the information you provide is 100% accurate.

After your personal information is entered, you will have the chance to upload any relevant attachments (including your resume and cover letter). As always, take some time to customize both documents for the position that you are applying for. Not only will this allow you to show a legitimate interest in working at Dell, it will also give you the opportunity to demonstrate exactly how your previous experiences have prepared you for the job that you are applying for. We admit that it can be a pain to customize your resume and cover letter for every position that you apply for, but it's one of the best way to ensure a successful job search. Your time will rarely be better spent.

Once you upload your resume and cover letter, you will be able to review your application before you submit it. Be sure to check for any errors, and go ahead and send it once you're happy with what you see.
