You may wonder what keywords excel at picking up "resume condition" traffic.

You want the truth?

    YOU CAN'T HANDLE THE TRUTH

Just kidding. That was Jack Nickelson speaking for the NSA.

Here is how it is done:

    o Select all traffic.

    o Exclude commonplace traffic, such as mailing lists.
      example: FROM <firewalls@greatcircle.com>
      This is done by selecting keywords that match against the routing
      information in the email header: who it came from, who it is going to.
      The phone analogy is recipient and originating phone numbers.
      This cuts down on "noise". "Secret Power" gave examples of this too.

    o Search all traffic for a set of keywords that are found (tuned) over
      time to have the best results. SOME of the ones I used:

            first day
            last day
            resign
            new job
            resume
            interview
            drug test

It's ironic that drug testing of employees is so wide-spread that it can
be used to pick out people looking for new jobs.

    o Further exclusion logic (keywords) to isolate the meaning of the
      keyword 'resume' to mean job history. Also, UK people say 'CV'.
      Example: do NOT allow a sentence fragment like 'resume playing'
      to trigger "resume condition" inclusion.

That's how it is done.

I then sit at a terminal and page through a
summary of the results, looking for 'hits'.

That's how DICTIONARY works too.

And it's damn effective.
