A plasticating apparatus and method for its use including a rotating screw having a helical flight disposed within and cooperating with the inner wall of a heated barrel with said barrel provided with inlet and outlet openings so that particles of resinous material are introduced through said inlet opening to a helical valley extending along said flight to be plasticated by said screw and advanced towards said outlet opening. A barrier extends along said helical valley to divide said helical valley into coextensive side by side helical valley sections. The barrier extends in a path which is non-parallel and alternating with respect to the helical flight so that the pitch of the barrier is alternately greater than and less than the pitch of the helical flight. The height of the barrier is less than the height of the flight so that the resinous material overflows the barrier due to changes in width of said side by side helical valley sections.

A screw for use in an plasticating injection apparatus includes a plurality of interrupted primary flights. An outer surface of a primary valley is formed by the primary flights and features a plurality of plateaus. The plateaus span adjacent sections of the primary flights and define shallow levels between deeper levels of the primary valleys. This depth differential contributes to a turbulent mixing action which, along with the primary and secondary valleys, contributes to improve mixing action within a metering section of the screw. The primary flights are interrupted by secondary valleys which are of opposite hand to the primary valleys.

A method of facilitating a match between an employer with at least one job opening and job seekers is provided. The employer has a set of position preferences related to the job opening. The job seekers have suitability data, resumes, etc., that are provided to the employer. The suitability data includes normalized assessment data. The method includes the steps of: determining a position quotient based on the position preferences; deriving a performance quotient for each job seeker, the performance quotient including normalized assessment data; comparing each the performance quotient to the position quotient; and ranking each the job seeker based on the comparison of the performance quotient to the position quotient.
