Answer to Question 1

Many companies feature on their Web sites special careers sections dedicated to the firm's employment opportunities. In fact, corporate Web sites have become the primary way most students research companies and evaluate career opportunities. In addition to providing information about current job openings, the careers site can also contain information about a firm's corporate culture and mission. Many companies are able to accept applications and administer prescreening tests online. Thoughtfully developed careers sites can also result in more effective interviews because applicants' basic questions will already have been answered by Web site content, and poor fits are more likely to have self-selected out after learning more about the organization and job opportunity online.

It is critical that the paths to career sites are easy to find, and that career sites be kept usable. It has to be borne in mind that other companies are working on creative ways to grab a candidate's attention as they build their recruiting pages so Web sites have to be competitively appealing to the right kind of job-seekers.

Search functions can help visitors identify the job opportunities they wish to pursue and their desired work locations, and self-assessment inventories can help applicants decide which opportunities are best for them. Drop-down menus and rsum builders can allow visitors to submit their background information in a standardized manner, facilitating the screening and record keeping of this information. If done professionally and in an easy-to-navigate manner, our Web site can help establish and maintain the organization's image as a good employer.
