Discuss the purposes of an electronic applicant-tracking system

Answer 1

Some print résumés become electronic files when they are scanned by an employer into an electronic database where they can be read and sorted by a computer. Companies of all sizes are using electronic applicant-tracking systems to increase efficiency of processing the volume of résumés received in a competitive market. Such systems store scanned résumés in an electronic database where they can be sorted by keyword with a resulting ranking of applicants. The system can also automatically prepare letters of rejection and interview offers and store the résumés of hired applicants for future promotion consideration.
