INSTRUCTIONS FOR ASSIGNMENT Assignment Description Part 1 Identify two employers and links to their online job application portals. Look at the user-friendliness of the application process and the value of the general job information found online.

Using information from your research, create a PowerPoint presentation with key bullet points and a paragraph in the notes section on the following: Articulate the user-friendliness of the application process for the selected employers. Compare the quality of the job information for each employer from an applicant’s viewpoint.

Should CapraTek use these websites to post job positions or search for applicants? Using information from the two job search websites, create additional PowerPoint slides and two paragraphs in the notes sections to include the following: Articulate the user-friendliness of the general job search websites.
