It is quite possible that
thousands of jobs getting published in print-media (Newspapers), never get
uploaded on job-sites. (Except Times of India $\rightarrow$ Timesjobs).
And very few copies of
leading METRO newspapers manage to reach medium/small towns. And those copies
that do find their way to small towns, reach homes of people who are NOT
looking for jobs!
This means, these jobs remain "inaccessible"
to small-town jobseekers!
This is what makes such
(print-media) jobs, a "SCARCE CONTENT"
("Killer Content" by
Mai Lan Tomsen).
According to author Mai Lan, it
is
Such "scarce
content" that differentiate successful from unsuccessful
websites.
If your website offers a CONTENT
that no other website offers, people will visit your site by thousands.
Apparently Naukri has realized
this. But they seem to have tied up (so far), only with
- Deccan Herald
- Indian Express
Could it be that other major
newspapers, publish/upload their print media job-adverts on their OWN
sites? I don't know. But it can take oneday to find out! May be I will do it.
But, keep in mind that someday
soon, we should create on IndiaRecruiter a page/form, called
"Job Post for
Newspapers"
Where they can enter/upload jobs
printed in their hardcopies. This feature/offer may even attract them to subscribe/register
for JAS.

[URGENT]
(Abhi)
Pl. download—then try on any
sample "resume" and see whether it is capable of generating a
"NEW" version of same resume.
If it does, then we have hit a
jackpot!
If it does, we will immediately
pay-up $ 29.95 to upgrade to PREMIUM edition.
This can be a fantastic tool (if
it works), in helping candidates WRITE (really REWRITE) their existing resumes!
(Newspaper Clipping)
Cut & Paste | Fraudulent
students are pinching research papers from the net. There is even a
paraphrasing software that edits a stolen paper to make it look different.
Piali Banerjee reports
WORLD WIDE THESIS
A student term paper that was
originally about the post-graduate student's paper on nanotubes was word
perfect, except the thoughts were too good to be true. A few minutes and a
Google search later, the truth emerged: the entire paper had been downloaded
from a website. ... A part of a typical day in the age of teachers in the
Information Age, when students have access to a few billion pages on the
internet. Today, professors of university physics departments across Mumbai
cite plagiarism as a growing problem as far as evaluating adoption. A professor
of IIT Powai even estimates that "near-about 50 percent" plagiarised
material directly from the internet for term papers/projects.
Julie Ryan of George Washington
University cites a particularly potent personal experience of catching a
student who plagiarized an entire term paper from the Internet. Finding the
paper too sophisticated for the student, Ryan had done an AltaVista search
hunting for similar language. It took only five minutes to find that the entire
paper was taken word for word an online journal article by Ross Arson, a
distinguished Californian university professor.
... It isn't only essays, even in
a competitive environment like programming, cut-and-paste plagiarism is
rampant. A final year project submitted by a computer science student in a
Mumbai college recently had an exact match in a paper on the IIT Powai website.
... "Whenever I ask students to cite their views, they download reports
from the internet," says Michelle Philip, head of department, English, at
SIES college. ... "The biggest trap of all that professors have access to
is the internet. Nowadays, before teaching a course, I access all related
websites and information that students have about this for the reference. This
makes it difficult for them to plagiarise."
Philip contacted a creative
writing programme at Watson College, where, she says, "creativity is truly
about hiding one's sources, because the once plays submitted as "original
work" is now a stick to be written by students," she says. "We
had to pay the author for a head of plagiarism." This year I asked the
students to create one-act plays using scientific words," says Philip.
"So they had to do original work."
Professors agree that the
university's regulations and honor agreements that aren't generally available
in the majority of our folks students to explain Kant's philosophies they'll
find papers on-line on copy and will they need to them to compare two papers on
Kant's philosophy... will copy in copies of the two papers along with their key
pages-they'll have to write by themselves.
While many universities worldwide
are trying to curb the detection of plagiarism and punish offenders severely,
Indian colleges are still lenient. The maximum penalty is a reduction in grades
or an oral before the plagiarised parts of the paper. "Our punishments
aren't enough," says the students says professor Hemant Narwari, KK
college. "However, the tears are at best too. We give lower grades to
greedy to mess up the original, appeals them to stick plagiarised reports thus
failing to encourage original writing."
Priti, a student who was to
George Washington University exchange programme, talks about the
anti-plagiarism rules in US colleges.
"Every assignment was run
through a software to check the text of plagiarism, every time,"
she says. "Anyone who is plagiarising was suspended."
Some colleges also devise junior
ways. Sharit Bhowmick, sociology professor, Bombay University, for instance,
recently received an MPhil thesis on education labour, for example. He asked
the students to write all pages of the thesis in an effort to distance himself
from his own writings.
Plagiarism from the internet cuts
across all literary forms. Professors reveal that students download well-known
poems from the Internet and submit these to colleges magazines as their
contribution.
... Sometimes, they aren't so
little known. A college magazine recently ran the poem, A Road-Side
Life, submitted in a name a corner of tenderness soothing the pain,
apparently authored by a student who was unaware that many of us have read it
on the Net.
If technology offers cheating
opportunities, it offers checks too. Detection software can beat sites like
cheater.com that offer readymade term papers on various subjects. Plagiarism
software can be easily used to check potentially plagiarised documents by analysing
the syntax of sentence construction, language, and grammar. Source
Document Analysis Software is another sophisticated weapon that checks the
essays against documents on the Internet. Plagiarism detectors that were
given on any words on our website, such as Source Document Analysis Software,
developed at the University of California, Berkeley, is an internet service
that detects plagiarism in computer programming.
On the other hand, there a tool
which can paraphrase a nature, to make it look original. paraphrasing
software is a different technique, the process is similar to
cheating techniques that whose solution, professors say, doesn't lie in the checking,
it lies in human integrity.
