How does GuruMine help
→ a Recruitment Manager in particular
→ a Company in general
Ans:
Every time a company advertises a vacancy (either in newspapers or on websites), the Recruitment Manager gets flooded with hundreds or thousands of email resumes. Reputed companies also keep getting thousands of unsolicited resumes.
Hidden among these thousands of email resumes could be the very candidate you are looking for – the ideal person for the job.
But the problem is, how to find this person from a heap of unstructured resumes, which are practically “unsearchable”? A typical “Needle in the haystack” problem.
Any attempt to create a “searchable” database from these resumes, by getting an army of data-entry operators to read each resume and create a “structured database”, is fraught with danger!
It is beyond the intelligence of a data-entry operator to figure out:
→ skills / knowledge of the jobseeker
→ Functional Competence
→ the Industry background
→ Hierarchical Seniority
etc. etc.
This is tough even for an experienced recruiter.
And this is precisely the type of information a recruiter needs — in matter of seconds — to decide whether the candidate is worth shortlisting / interviewing or not. So, any database created by data-entry operator is useless.
But using its AI-based algorithms, this is precisely the type of info which GuruMine extracts from a resume!
And it stores this info in a structured database, making it extremely simple to zero-in on the desirable/suitable candidates in a matter of seconds, using GuruMine’s accompanying search engine,
RESU-SEARCH GuruSearch.
Having shortlisted a few suitable candidates from amongst thousands, a Recruitment Manager can send out “Interview Call Letters” –
– once again, in a matter of seconds!
If a Recruitment Manager finds that some “values” are missing in the structured database created by GuruMine, he can,
at the click of the mouse, email this database to the concerned candidate,
asking him to fill in the missing values & return the email.
Upon arrival, the returning email will automatically – and without any human intervention – update the database of that particular candidate!
Suppose I decide to discontinue my subscription (of your web service) after sometime or decide not to renew it, what happens to my resume database lying on your server?
Can I download it (– along with the STRUCTURED database) on my local hard disk? Thereafter, will it cease to exist on your webserver?
ANS:
Your resume database lying on our web-server is exclusively YOURS & it is completely INACCESSIBLE to anyone else.
In case you decide to discontinue (or not renew) your subscription at any time, you can download your entire resume database (email resumes + extracted structured database) on your local server.
This (downloading) process will automatically delete your database from our webserver.
It will cease to exist on our webserver.
► Suppose, after a gap of few weeks, I decide to “renew” my subscription of your web service, how do I go about it? Can I once again, upload my old database on your webserver — along with the STRUCTURED database?
Ans:
Yes, it is possible to “renew” your subscription after discontinuing.
If you reactivate within 6 months, you will not need to pay the "ACTIVATION-FEE" once again — and your Customer No. will not change — it will remain the same.
However, you will need to pay User Fee & Transaction Fee before re-activation takes place.
Upon receipt of payment — along with your request for "re-activation", we will “re-activate” your account by issuing to you, your new USER ID / PASSWORD.
Of course, you will be able to upload on our webserver, your old resume-database.
Will you be using OUR resumes for any other purpose? If so, what purpose?
Ans:
Your resumes will always remain completely “INACCESSIBLE” to anyone else — whether to any other subscriber of our webservice or even to OURSELVES!
No one will ever get to see/view YOUR resumes, nor forward the same to anyone else. Only you can do this.
Will I be able to search your own resume database? — and shortlist suitable candidates?
Would I need to pay any charges for such search/shortlisting?
Ans:
Yes, you will be able to also search our own resume database & shortlist candidates, if you so desire.
Of course, when you search our resume database, the identities/contact data of the shortlisted candidates is NOT revealed.
You may, however, tick ✔ those candidates (from our resume database) whom you would like to interview and email this to us. Upon receipt of your email, we will send you our “PROPOSAL” for organising interviews.
No fee is payable for conducting search/shortlisting.
For downloading resumes from our database, you pay as per the TARIFF CHART (MENU-CARD).
After downloading, you may contact those candidates directly on your own, at the “contact data” available in the resumes.
We do not assume any responsibility for the accuracy / up-to-dateness of any info (including contact data) contained in the resumes.
If I discontinue your web-service for a few weeks and then decide to re-subscribe/re-activate, do I need to pay "Activation-charge" once again?
Ans:
Yes please.
Do I need to enter into a “Subscriber Agreement” to avail of your service? Can this be signed online?
Ans:
Yes, you would need to enter into a “Subscriber Agreement” with 3P.
Yes, it can be signed online.
The “Terms & Conditions,” attached to the online Registration Forms (Free Trial and/or Regular Subscriber), constitute an agreement between you and Recuitguru.
You are accepted as a Subscriber when you accept these “Terms & Conditions” by checking:
► I/We agree with your “Terms & Conditions” and accept the same ☑
What are your “Tariffs” for different transactions? Are these tariffs the same for all subscribers? Are there any “bulk-discounts”?
What happens to my subscription if you decide to revise the tariff?
Is the subscription linked to any period?
Is there any refund of the “unused” amount of subscription, if I decide to terminate the subscription midway?
Apart from “Transaction-charge”, what is your charge for the memory disk-space occupied by our resume database?
In what different ways can I make payments for the webservice? Can I make “Online” payment using Credit-Card? Or ICICI online payment service?
Ans:
You can pay for our webservice as per one of the following options:
#1 → Thru ICICI Online Payment Service
#2 → Thru use of your “Credit-Card”

How will I come to know that the "balance" in my subscription account is running low and that it is time to replenish it with fresh payment?
Ans:
As soon as your “Balance” reaches 10% of the “Transaction Fee” initially deposited/paid by you, you will receive an email “alert” to that effect.
Your “Tariff-chart” shows “per-use” transaction charges in US $. But we do not have a Dollar-Account. Can we make payments in Indian Rupees?
Ans:
Yes, you may make payments in In
Do you plan to add further "modules" to your webservice to cover the entire range of recruitment process?
What are these modules & when do you plan to add these?
Ans:
Eventually, our webservice will span all the Human Resource related business processes, as shown in following chart.
Resu-Mine / Resu-Search is just the first module which will be followed by several modules. Initially, we plan to cover the entire recruitment process, to be followed by modules covering post-recruitment processes as well.
GLOBAL RECRUITER – A ROAD MAP
Is there any “Minimum” amount of transactions that we must execute using your webservice? — or a minimum monthly “Transaction-charges”?
Ans:
As of now, there is no such “minimum” of no. of transactions or amount of “transaction-charges”.
If I am an “Individual” and not a “corporate-body”, can I still avail of your web-service? Can I become your subscriber?
Ans:
Sorry! Our Global Recruiter webservice is only meant for corporate bodies / organizations / institutions...
Yes, sure.
Can we “add” / “delete” to the list of “Authorised Users” from our organisation who can use the webservice?
Ans:
Sure, at anytime you can add/delete to the list of “authorised users”.
Of course, such “addition/deletion” of user-names can be done only by the Chief of Personnel / Designated Person (COP/DP).
Anytime COP/DP makes such changes, our webserver will automatically send out an email to all concerned user(s) informing each of their changed “status”.
Not only can the COP/DP add/delete the list of “Authorised Persons”, but he can also make whatever changes he wants in the “ACCESS-RIGHTS” of each of the Authorised Person, as far as various MODULES are concerned.
Eg:
-
COP/DP may not want Mr. X to be able to access RESUMINE
-
or Mr. Y to be able to access RESU-SEARCH
-
or Mr. Z to be able to access “AD. COMPOSE”
etc. etc.
When one of our local Recruitment Manager, who is an “Authorised User”, leaves our employ, do we need to inform you? Do we also need to inform you the name of the person replacing him?
Ans:
This is absolutely essential. As soon as one of the existing “Authorised Person” leaves your employ (– or even submits his resignation!), you must, first, delete his name from the “Authorised Users” list.
This can be done ONLINE, by the COP/DP.
Simultaneously, you should send us an email (webservice@3pjobs.com) telling us about the change that you have carried out online – and the reason.
At all times, it is your responsibility to ensure that persons who you do not want to access/use the webservice are removed from the “Authorised Persons” list.
After deleting the name of the person who has left your employ, you can, at anytime, add the name of any other person whom you wish to authorise.
Would you accept your competitors (– other placement agencies / other jobsites etc.) as subscribers to your webservice?
Ans:
As of now, NO! For the moment we wish to restrict our webservice to “End-Employers” only.
Sure, any placement agency / executive search firm / jobsite etc. is welcome to subscribe to our webservice. We do not look upon them as our competitors but as our collaborators.
We strongly believe that placement agencies and jobsites would stand to increase their process productivity manifold, by subscribing to our webservice.
Will your “Subscriber Agreement” clearly state that the resumes which we have uploaded on your webserver for processing, are our own/exclusive “Intellectual Property” & that you have no property-rights or any other claim on the same?
Ans:
Most certainly, our “Subscriber Agreement” would contain such clause.
If we do not want to retain old resumes in our database (which unnecessarily occupy disk-space), what is the mechanism to “delete” the same?
In such an event, would you “add” these resumes to your own database? In such a case, will the PEN (Permanent Executive Number) allotted to that candidate change or will it remain the same?
Ans:
-
You will be able to delete from your resume database any (one or more) resume/s you do not wish to carry. The way to do this is as follows:
(Note: A box is drawn here, possibly to insert step-by-step instructions.)
-
The moment you delete any resume from your database, it will not automatically get added to our resume database. The PEN does not change.
