Managing
resumes with Files search Assistant
Often
I need to find some documents, in most cases applicants' resumes...
I
just imagined, how I would have tried if I've used common Windows
Searcher. First, I should find the document, then view it, then
make some notes and only after it go next. It would really take too
much time.
Introduction
Often I need to find
some documents, in most cases applicants' resumes. They are stored in
some folders, and there are thousands of them! Some from the websites
in html-pages, some from e-mail messages, some simply in the text
files, some were received in attachments in zip format, and the
administrators haven't unpack them. And I am to sort them by some
signs - applicants' skills, experience, age, gender and so on...
I had used to do it
manually, but it made me really tired - it's not easy to view all the
files with different programs for several hours.
But I decided, that
it's possible to use some program, that can ease my work, for there
are possibilities to find text abstracts in the Windows Searcher. I
tried it, but found it doesn't mention some file formats.
Managing
Resumes with FSA

Demo
Files
Search Assistant
Then I tried the Files
Search Assistant. Sure, it made all the work much more easier!
Major
benefits
It allows to set some
search parameters, to search in some (not the whole drive or a single
folder, but really some folders!), and the best is the possibility to
view files of many formats - I use many, but there was none it didn't
open!
Also great function -
to sort all found files by relevancy! It allow to select preferable
resumes as soon as they are found.
If
I've used common Windows Searcher
I just imagined, how I would have tried if I've used common
Windows Searcher.
First, I should
find the document, then view it, then make some notes and only
after it go next. It would really take too much time.
But it's just a
half of all process, also I would had to create the list of
all found files, to copy them all one by one in separate
folder, and to send it all to my boss with explanation what
and where to search.

And after you find all
you need, FSA may generate the HTML-file with the search criterions
and with the file list with paths to all files, relevance and
quotations from the source file, and it's quite useful, if you need,
for example, to send the report to your boss.
And if you need to
group the files somehow, you may copy or move all or some found files
to a separate folder, for example, completely suitable applicants - to
"Completely" folder, partly - to "Partly" and so
on... FSA allows you to do it directly from it's own shell.

Why
choose FSA
So, I found that FSA
really eases the search process of any documents:
-
it allows to search
in several folders at once;
-
to search in the
files already found but with other criterions;
-
to group the files
by some signs;
-
to search in
different files types, even in zip archives;
-
to create a report
with everything necessary - path to the file, description and
quotation from the file.
It seems, it's very
hard to use it all, but in reality it appears very easy for a great
user interface and help, which includes even flash tutorial!
So, if you use the FSA,
it will really ease your work process, make it faster and you'll have
more time for other job, demanding real efforts.
