Hi Friends,

Even as I launch this today ( my 80th Birthday ), I realize that there is yet so much to say and do. There is just no time to look back, no time to wonder,"Will anyone read these pages?"

With regards,

PROCESSES AUTOMATION

PROCESSES

I am a great believer in automating all “processes” and eliminating human intervention altogether.

Again, as each process starts / triggers, a visitor to GR must get a message to tell him what is happening as a result of his click and how long it will take to display the results.
This is very important if the process is likely to take more than 3 seconds.

Again, as each process ends, there should flash a message as to what the visitor / user is supposed to do next.

This lack of “two-way communication” is the main problem with most websites.
The user clicks, a visitor instructs / commands the website to “do ABC / XYZ.”
As soon as a click is made, the website must acknowledge that it has understood the command and that it is acting upon the command.

This message is a great assurance to the visitor that his command has been understood and is being acted upon.

Hence, it is wrong to economize on “confirmation messages” after each click.

Pl. study enclosed processes.

Is it automated

What improvements do we need to incorporate in this process? What is missing?

1

Downloading Job Adverts from different Websites (spider)

Notes:

1️ Obviously ALL of these instructions should be used for different hundred websites.

2️ Make one downloading spider for Naukri. We need the advt (including of partners) on Naukri to be downloaded automatically.

3️ Monitor addition of Job Adverts & Insights.

4️ Restrict to those advertisements which are inside HTML and avoid those posting forms on alien frameworks (Closing Curious ?).

5️ During a “spider post,” fetch the following fields automatically: Company Name, Location, Job Title, Functional Area, Industry Name (if given in Job Advert).

6️ Subsequently, our Job-Search engine (“GumSearch”) will match with keywords for Resume-Search through Function Profiles.

7️ While hooking to Global Recruit (GumMine / GumSearch / ATM / IAS etc.) major job sites do not reveal the email ID of advertisers since we are not members of Naukri / Times Jobs / Monster etc. Hence, we must fill such advertisers with their current email address manually at the backend.

8️ We must have a field for “Company Name + URL Field.”

9️ To prepare an advantage, because investigation should start early and we may automate with some smart match.

  Company Name + Client + Job Title

  Name of Placement Agency / Consultant.

🔟 In “Contact Information” field in most job advertisements, the field “Name / Designation” contains the name of the Recruitment Executive. Jobseekers are supposed to send their resume to that person. If we are able to extract names / emails of such executives, that will help us.

11️ In IAS being added to Naukri, we can add the names of those executives and link to the company to whom these jobs belong.

12️ With database of Recruitment Executives, our partner websites will be able to target their marketing promotional efforts to right persons.

Downloading Resumes from different websites

A few months back, we had started downloading from JobStreet. Maybe 1,500 / 2,000 were downloaded. These Job Adverts blocked. After linking to JobStreet marketing girl from Hyderabad – not replying even once. We have (stopped the process for JobStreet).
Maybe another 6 months or more. We must resume this downloading (of some authentic sites) by assigning unique IP addresses to avoid blocking or suspicion.

We can easily download from JobStreet and JobsAhead through C.V. (We have confirmed subscription for both).

We have earned similar subscriptions from Shine (₹1.3 Lakh yearly), but did not go ahead for fear of being blocked. As we know, Naukri blocks us immediately if it finds any anomaly. Therefore, we should avoid downloading from all those job portals where we are paying subscribers.

For Global Recruit to be able to be perceived as a large no. of partner websites, we should have at least 25 to 30 genuine partners who are job advertisers / aggregators. Only then will GR have any leverage against such large databases.

(Hello) Partner websites know that corporates won’t sign up unless GR has a large Resume Database. Unless GR has 1 million + resumes, it won’t be attractive enough for corporates.

We must therefore try to reach that number through bulk resume uploads from partner websites.

Each partner can be offered a financial incentive. It could be ₹2–₹5 per resume put in search. That would be irresistible. At least 10–15 such high-subscription partner websites will surely participate — especially those with no long-term commitments and big amounts involved.


Besides completely automating the process of:

  • Downloading resumes from various websites
  • Downloading resumes directly on GR
  • Ensuring no duplication on GR
  • We must also automate the process of sending promo emails to new candidates, asking them to log in and EDIT their resumes.

Processing all downloaded resumes from GumMine

About 2 weeks back, we processed some 5 lakh text resumes – found 1.8 lakh “unique” resumes – which now are supposed to have been uploaded on GR (with Function Profile Graphs Panel for each candidate).

Last week Reena has forwarded to Rahul, after extracting (maybe) 2.6 lakh text resumes received by 3P during 2004 & 2005 (2.4 lakh in total). These too must be quickly processed by GumMine & uploaded in GR – along with Function Profile Graphs.

3P continues to receive 25–30 per day. Reena has promised to forward these to Rahul once a week (Friday?) – so that the same can be processed through GumMine over each weekend.

On top of arrivals at 3P, should we restart downloading from JobStreet / Monster / Naukri to include newly arrived / automatic resumes on GumMine every weekend?

On top of all these offline arrivals, text resumes will get uploaded by jobseekers online on partner websites of 3PSystem. We should be able to identify those uploaded resumes at each partner site, extract the Function Profile Graphs (as in GR), and move to the GR database.

Each Function Profile Graph is auto-generated (AI engine based).
HR managers will love this because it visually shows personality types / job suitability. Low scores / percentiles may not like anyone to see their graphs (!!).

Once a week (or every night?), we must re-process all resumes. Both “archived” & “newly uploaded,” to ensure that:
1️
Duplicate IDs are removed (if any).
2️
Keywords / function area codes / CI weights auto-assigned (using key functions).
3️
Ranking of resumes by Function Profile Graph relevance.
4️
Mismatch elimination (in case of same candidate with different function codes).
5️
Reprocessing of the most popular subset (of each function) at fixed intervals.

The entire process must be made fully auto & self-triggered.

Daily e-JAM to NMT Subscribers

Whenever JobAdvt gets posted on GR, everyday do auto-transferring to NMT to generate eJAM / eJAS. Source to be mentioned on eJAM SMS will be “name of Government / Partner website.”

 

5

Daily e-JAS to Newspapers

Must include job adverts posted on all partner websites.

 

6

Daily e-JAB

As soon as a matching job advert gets posted on any partner website (including Job-Preference), an SMS must go out within 5 minutes to corresponding jobseeker’s mobile. Such a jobseeker might have registered with any of our partner websites (as long as his mobile number is common) and if he has an agreement with that mobile service provider.

 

7

Daily e-RAM / e-RAB

I (you) feel RAM is important. As soon as a HR rep posts his job advert on GR, right there and then, within a few seconds, we can flash a message on his screen telling him, “Following candidates have matching resumes.”

He can simply click on the TRANSFER button. When message box of all three (say) candidates flashes, he clicks (open) any to view resume profiles before paying ₹1 / click.

Since Airtel / MTNL are NOT charging anything for pushing JAM to their subscribers, we can quietly start pushing RAB also to their corporate subscribers. For HR subscribers who are “recruiting executives,” each targeted alert will cost ₹1 per “Ref. 1” (of course).

In fact, to job-seeking candidates hidden on RAB SMS, we will shoot his PIN. Then provide a feature on GR where that HR may log in & enter that PIN to see full resume (Ref. 1 of course).
