For Convenience (CFC) – I
CFC
also stands for Chloro Fluoro Carbon, earlier used in refrigeration & now
banned because it punches a hole in earth’s protective ozone layer.
But
here is a CFC, designed to punch a hole in the pockets of our Webservice
subscribers! What is more, they will simply love it.
Here
is how it will work.
In
my yesterday’s note – “The Match Maker” – I have described how, by processing 1
Lakh job-adverts (or even 25,000 sent by sajitha so far), we can create a
frequency distribution profile as follows:
(A
graph is drawn here with the following labels)
Function:
Mat-Mgmt.
Population:
943
Godrej
Advt. No: →
Percentile:
62%
Next
look at the “Ad-Compose” screen, enclosed.
As
soon as Webservice subscriber completes composing the job-advt – and clicks on
PREVIEW
GRAPH button,
the
“Job Related Information” block disappears.
In
its place,
“The
Job Advt. Function Profile” Graph
appears
as shown.
This
(indirectly) tells the recruiter, how good (or bad) a job he has done while
drafting/composing the job-advt (mainly the job-description portion – whether
it contains the skill/knowledge related keywords).
Somewhere,
we should clearly tell him:
“Dear
Advertiser,
The
graphical ‘Job Advt. Function Profile’ which you see here is based on usage of
relevant keywords (skills / knowledge / expertise, related), in hundreds /
thousands of job-adverts, as far as this function is concerned.”
The
percentile-score of the job-advt:
Which
you have just drafted, is based on the keywords used by you in the “Job
Description” & the “Candidate Profile” blocks.
If
you feel that this percentile-score is too low or too high, you can go back
& modify the “Job Description” / Candidate Profile by deleting or adding →
keywords.
In
any case, when you click on
SAVE,
the “Actual Designation” will get
automatically
transferred to the Resume-Search (ResuSearch) screen.
This
will make it very easy/convenient for you to search the resumes received
against this job-advt. at any time in future.
All
you have to do is just click on the “Actual Designation” in the
RIGHT
CANDIDATE (Basic Search Parameter) screen.
Wishing
you a “Simplified headhunting.”
Now
take a look at the search-screen (enclosed).
Each
Webservice-subscriber would have his own “CUSTOMIZED” Search-screen.
In
the right-hand bottom corner of this screen, will be a block where "Actual
Designations" will get automatically picked-up from each and every
job-advert composed by that subscriber, and get displayed, as shown.
By
simply clicking on one of the "Actual Designations", the subscriber
will be able to view a tabulated display of all the resumes received against
that job-advt.
Then
further clicking will reveal full resume.
I
have repeatedly stressed that no subscriber can ever remember (– or care to
remember), a Job Advt. No.
He
can only remember the "Position-Name" (the Actual Designation) which
he has advertised.
So,
when he sees this block, he is immediately able to "relate".
Also,
at one glance, he is able to see all the job-adverts released by him so far.
We
can even place the "Advt. Date", next to each Actual Designation.
This block may look something like what follows…
the
recruiter gets to see following tabulation:
Actual
Designation (Position Name) |
Date
Advertised |
No.
of Resumes Received So Far |
Materials
Manager |
04-03-03 |
249 |
Sales
Engineer |
16-04-03 |
332 |
He
can even “click” on last column & see the short-display / long-display of
resumes.
This
is another convenience.
Question:
Can
these two, apparently “stand-alone” conveniences be linked, to create a SUPER-CONVENIENCE?
This
is possible, if software can create yet another column, into which it
automatically “transfers” yet another value (→ see below):
Actual
Designation (Position Name) |
Date
Advertised |
Total
No. of Resumes Received So Far |
Resumes

– II (Customize
for Convenience) In
my yesterday’s note, I had talked about 2 conveniences: ▶ Convenience for
Recruiter – #1 Entering
“Job Description” & “Candidate Profile” while composing a job-advt (using
Ad-Compose Tool) will generate following profile: (Graph) By
adding/deleting “Keywords” (to job-description / candidate profile),
recruiter can move the % position to left or right. This
is recruiter’s convenience. ▶ Convenience for
Recruiter – #2 By
automatic transfer of “Actual Designation” from Ad-Compose Tool to...
This
column should get updated daily & automatically, as subscriber uploads
the resumes received daily for ResuMine Conversion. On
the other hand he can also save himself the trouble/effort of daily uploading
– by simply selecting an option whereby his “Advt. Mail Box” is on our
webservice – so that all incoming email resumes get directly deposited in
this mailbox itself. By
providing a box like this on search-screen, not only will it vastly simplify
subscriber’s life – it will also increase our revenue manyfold because every
time when he sees the box listing, the subscriber cannot resist the
temptation to click (on many positions), earning us Rs. 0.50/- for
each click! My
suggestion is that, in the “Ad-Compose” tool,
once recruiter sees the Profile graph, we give him feature/facility to key
down / prescribe the: ▶ Upper control
limit of percentile —as
shown in above tabulation: (Graph) So,
the software automatically does the “SORTING” on behalf of the recruiter
& presents to him only those resumes which fulfil the criteria. Software,
in effect, acts as an “AGENT” for the recruiter! Can
we think of giving still further convenience to recruiter whereby, he can
MOVE the limits at will, dynamically & see its effect on No. of suitable
resumes in col #4 & #2? Don’t
forget to charge every time he resets/sets limits – even if it is Rs. 1/-
