During an employee recruiting process, a company can receive hundreds of resumes. The resumes may be in a variety of document file formats. If the company is looking for a specific skill set, it needs the ability to search across all resumes for words associated with the skill set. With Full-Text Search, the resumes can be stored in their native file formats and indexed into Full-Text Search catalogs. Once the documents are in a full-text catalog, a user can search across all file formats for words and phrases related to the desired skill set.

For example, if the Development department needs a developer, a user might search for develop* OR program* over the full-text collection and retrieve a list of resumes containing those words. Included in the search results list would be resumes with the words developer, development, develop, programmer, programming, etc. If the department needs a developer with UNIX experience, a user can perform a search for develop* AND UNIX to get a list of resumes matching that search. If the documents were indexed with a Date Available Keyword Type, the search could be further narrowed to include only those candidates who are available for immediate hire.

Using Full-Text Search effectively streamlines the search process, saving overall time in hiring new employees.
