Answer to Question 1

A scannable resume has a plain format that allows organizations to scan it as pure text. Once scanned, the
information is stored in a database. When an organization has a position open, the recruiter scans the database for
key words, such as bilingual and team building. The database is scanned, and within minutes a list of applicants
whose resumes match the stated criteria is brought to the screen.
Without the scanning process, an organization must handle individual resumes to identify their desirable
applicants.
