The use of VoiceXML technology that connects the callers to the application via Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) has made the phone-based application accessible by any types of telephone, anywhere around the globe. We demonstrate the applicability of this technology via a job seekers' website. The website performs in a similar manner as those websites with SMS alert feature which provides alternative to receive and update the website's content other than using Internet connection. Alternatively, VXML-based websites provide more than just receiving job alerts and applying for a job via SMS. The callers will now have a new experience just like "talking" to the content of the website. This will be a new environment for job seeking application that allows command and output presented in speech format. The success of the research will contribute to the first VoiceXML-based application in Malaysia. © 2009 WASET.ORG. date: 2009 official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-78651580013&partnerID=40&md5=78c452c280401e97e4f9fee158433377 full_text_status: none publication: World Academy of Science, Engineering and Technology volume: 38 pagerange: 1119-1124 refereed: TRUE issn: 2010376X citation: Zamin, N. and Hashim, M.H. and Taib, S.M.
