Hunting for a Job
Hunting for a job late last year, lawyer Gant Redmon stumbled across CareerBuilder, a job database on the Internet. He searched it with no success but was attracted by the site’s "personal search agent." It’s an interactive feature that lets visitors key in job criteria such as location, title, and salary, then E -mails them when a matching position is posted in the database. Redmon chose the keywords legal, intellectual property, and Washington, D. C. Three weeks later, he got his first notification of an opening. "I struck gold, " says Redmon, who E - mailed his resume to the employer and won a position as in - house counsel for a company.
With thousands of career - related sites on the Internet, finding promising openings can’ be time - consuming and inefficient. Search agents reduce the need for repeated visits to the databases. But although a search agent worked for Redmon, career experts see drawbacks. Narrowing your criteria, for example, may work against you: "Every time you answer a question you eliminate a possibility, " says one expert.
For any job search, you should start with a narrow concept—what you think you want to do------then broaden it. "None of these programs do that, " says another expert. "There’s no career counseling implicit in all of this." Instead, the best strategy is to use the agent as a kind of tip service to keep abreast of jobs in a particular database; when you get E - mail, consider it a reminder to check the database again. "I would not rely on agents for finding everything that is added to a database that might interest me, " says the author of a job -searching guide.
Some sites design their agents to tempt job hunters to return. When CareerSite’s agent sends out messages to those who have signed up for its service, for example, it includes only three potential jobs—those it considers the best matches. There may be more matches in the database; job hunters will have to visit the site again to find them—and they do. "On the day after we send our messages, we see a sharp increase in our traffic, " says Seth Peets, vice president of marketing for CareerSite.
Even those who aren’t hunting for jobs may find search agents worthwhile. Some use them to keep a close watch on the demand for their line of work or gather information on compensation to arm themselves when negotiating for a raise. Although happily employed, Redmon maintains his agent at Career Builder. "You always keep your eyes open, " he says. Working with a personal search agent means having another set of eyes looking out for you.
Which of the following is true according to the text? ______
选项
A、Personal search agents are indispensable to job -hunters.
B、Some sites keep E - mailing job seekers to trace their demands.
C、Personal search agents are also helpful to those already employed.
D、Some agents stop sending information to people once they are employed.
答案
C
解析
本题难度很大, 涉及文章四个段落。最后一段第一句是个观点句, 谈到个人搜索代理对于有工作的人也同样有价值。C项是对这个观点句的近义改写, 因而是解。文章谈到个人搜索代理的优点, 也谈到其缺点, 因而不能说它对求职者来说是必不可少的, 所以A项与文意不符, 不是解。文章谈到个人搜索代理只是机械地寻找与关键词相匹配的工作职位, 找到后, 就发给求职者邮件, 没有提到不断地发邮件, 来了解求职者的需求, 因此B项与文意不符, 不是解。文意最后一段谈到个人搜索代理对于有工作的人照样有价值, 他们照样可以从中获取就业信息, 换句话说, 搜索代理对求职者和有工作的人一视同仁, 不会对有工作的人停发邮件信息, 因此D项与文意相反, 也不是答案。
