US Classification:

705320, 705319

Abstract:

A method of operating an employment system is provided. The method includes generating a score for each of a plurality of possible results compared to information associated with a user, enabling the user to access a result of the plurality of possible results if the score generated for the result meets a threshold condition, enabling the user to adjust the threshold condition and preventing the user from adjusting the threshold condition beyond a minimum threshold condition. The score can be a bi-directional matching score. The minimum threshold condition can include a minimum score. The minimum score can be determined based on the percentage of the plurality of possible results that would be accessible to the user.

US Classification:

705 1

Abstract:

A portable resume system and method collects and stores a user's credentials/attributes (e.g., a job seeker's resume information, skills, or any other suitable data) in a standardized format that can be shared with any individual, entity, or system to streamline the process of applying for jobs. Certain portions of the portable resume system function as a clearinghouse or portfolio for the user's credential's/attributes and enable the user to share any or all of the user's stored data with a plurality of different destinations (e.g., job applicant tracking systems (ATS), online job databases, employment websites, employers, recruiters, individuals, etc. . . . ). If the user shares the user's stored data with a destination that supports the portable resume system, the user can bypass at least part of or all of the destination's registration process. The portable resume system also enables the destination to obtain any updates the user makes to the user's stored data.

US Classification:

463 2

Abstract:

An image-based system and process of paper target scoring, and paper targets for use therewith, are disclosed. The system and process utilize functions that accumulate accuracy values based upon presumptions supplied to the present invention based upon the characteristics of bullet holes within paper target prior to any center point analysis. Subpixel analysis of images may heighten the accuracy of the scoring. The paper targets possess visual attributes adapted to permit scoring of the paper targets to be more rapid, facile, accurate, and secure.
