Abstract
Scanning technology is now playing a major role in Human Resource Information Systems (HRIS). As new applications are received, many organizations scan the résumés into their databases and subsequently search keywords to achieve a match between applicants' qualifications and job requirements. But typographical embellishments on some résumés cause scanning difficulties. This research article reports the impact of electronic résumé-management systems in Fortune 500 companies and examines the implications of this technology, providing guidelines for producing scanner-friendly résumés.
