Hunting for a job late last year, lawyer Gant Redmon stumbled across Career Builder, 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-mail them when a matching position is posted in the database.Redmon chose the key words 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 getan 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 Career Site’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 Career Site.
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. [br] Which of the following can be a disadvantage of search agents?
选项
A、Lack of counseling.
B、Limited number of visits.
C、Lower efficiency.
D、Fewer successful matches.
答案
A
解析
根据文章第2段的最后一句话可知,严格标准可能对你产生不利影响。根据第3段的第3句话可知,另一名专家说这些程序中没有隐含任何求职咨询。根据第4段的第2句话可知,代理人给那些登录需要服务的人们发送信息时,所发送的信息只包括三种可能的工作。综上所述,没有提供求职建议是一种不利条件。A项与文章的意思相符,因此A项为正确答案。
