All:

Interesting article in the Grand Rapids Press business section tonite. Written by Joyce Lain Kennedy.

"...because recruiters have no time to slog through hundreds of resumes to find a winner, for a time they stopped window shopping at proprietary banks. Now the junk resume problem has been minimized by companies that import resumes into their internal resume tracking system. This means that no one reads the resumes as they arrive but only when a keyword-based search-and-retrieval action flags resumes appropriate to a position...Looking around, I found that Newsweek reports that "1 in 4 companies today recruits via the Web- a figure expected to double by the year 2000. In its March issue, Fortune describes the Net as a far more powerful job-search tool than it was just months ago. Now you can't ignore it...

1) Management Recruiters International of Cleveland says 37% of more than 4,000 responding executives report their companies search the Net, up from 26% just 18 months ago.

2) Net Temps, a temp help firm, has more than 1,000 clients, a 400% increase from the previous year.

3) Deja News, a search engine for newsgroups, shows more than 2.4 million job postings for February, and projects a volume of nearly 30 million job postings this year, another 400% increase in volume from the previous year.

4) Lee Hecht Harrison, a large international career services firm, surveyed companies to report that 86% listed positions electronically compared to 30% two years ago.

...Fortune got it right: You can't ignore the Net."

Can someone tell me how to change the title of a post.

Thanks in advance
