    KSA_LONGS

The KSA_Longs are 255 characters in length.   They are great for
companies to store KSA's they have placed in various ad's in the
past, then bring back for re-use in a new ad.   Always break up a
long KSA into shorter sub components & store them as 70 wide or
component 255 wide KSA's if possible.   If you write your KSAs in
modules i.e. break them up into sub-components (which are their own
unique KSA's), then greater flexibility in mixing & matching parts of
your KSA, is possible.  This will keep the Standardized KSA file
(that everyone uses down to a manageable size.

To edit a long KSA, cursor down to the KSA field, then press <CTRL F>
for field edit.  Now cursor to the words you wish to delete, or
insertion point.  <HOME> <END> <INS> toggle type-over mode, all work
when in Field Edit mode.  To end field edit mode, press <Enter>.

Some KSA's will only apply  to one specific job (e.g. Air Traffic
Controller).  Other KSAs though in one group, can be used for lots of
different jobs, e.g. Wordperfect could be classified in the COMPU
group, but secretaries managers, writers, even factory workers might
select this KSA for their jobs.  If you are applying for a highly
specialized job like Air Traffic Controller, you might be benefited by
<F6> searching for all the KSAs in the group ATC.  Then claim all
that pertain to you.

To batch add to KSA_L's, use the export & import menu options. take
the export first to get the file layout example.

Then edit the KSA_expL file, to include all the KSAs you wish bearing
in mind the rules for KSA Longs, i.e. They all must start w. the 2
words " I have ", except the continued KSAs which there fore cannot
start w. "I have".  Continued KSAs also must be ID-Num'd in sequence.
