on travel technology, hacking and everything else

I was quite amazed to see this recruitment kiosk outside one of Alshaya’s outlets at the Avenues. It’s a great idea as such but the using it could get cumbersome for some.
The kiosk basically shows you a form from their recruitment portal. You need to fill it up. Then scan your resume onto the desktop. Select the scanned file using the browse option on the form and then submit. The average user would definitely need some help with this process.
As a solution for collecting potential resumes from the not-so-technical applicant, this is great.
But then, who walks around the Avenues with their resumes in hand?
