Notes: ONLINE GAME VOTE FOR YOUR PREFERRED EMPLOYERS

Vote for Your "Preferred Employers"

Abhi Sept. 12, 2004

Job-Preferences

Enclosed find my fresh proposal.

It is a bit lengthy – but it will take much less time as compared to filling-in "Job-Search" criteria on dozens of jobsites – and that too, daily! We must highlight that this is a ONE-TIME effort, worth taking trouble.

Enclosed Job-preference form "engages" the user in a novel experience. In every aspect of WWJ/JAM, we must differentiate ourselves from other jobsites – to establish that, WWJ is NOT a typical jobsite.

There is no way we can play the game by the rules already established by other jobsites (Current online recruitment industry). If we do, we are bound to be defeated! A great no. of these jobsites are too formidable on their "turf".

Not only, we must offer "Mass-Customization", We must also offer a different experience to each jobseeker.

Somewhat elaborate notes/explanations are meant to "De-mystify" our matchmaking process. This will increase our credibility – thr transparency.

Transferring "default" values, from Image Builder to Job-preference form simplifies Visitor's life.

We are getting thousands of jobseekers themselves to "assign" Industry-Names to the Companies in which they have worked/working. So, in 6 months we will build-up a good database (capturing wisdom/knowledge/content from everybody!). We will continuously add these to DCA database of 6.3 lakh Companies – after checking for duplicates. The database must be updated Once-a-day.

Check ticks made by jobseekers will enable us to, Someday offer, one more COMPANY-REPUTATION Index, as follows

	Company Name	Selected as "Preferred Employer" by No. of Jobseekers	% of Jobseekers
		text{Descending order of "VOTES polled"

Such a tabulation would be of tremendous interest/utility to both jobseekers & employers. This compilation & display will be automated and made available to only those who complete/submit job-preference form.

Now we don't need to worry whether a job-advt belongs to text{A or text{B or text{C Industry! We are getting jobseekers to specify which Companies they are interested in.

Job Preference

Date 12-09-04

Dear 4cm

The job-preferences which you enter here will enable your personal Software Agent to search/select and deliver to you everyday, matching/relevant job-alerts on your mobile. So, select carefully.

If you select very "broad/general" preferences, you may get many alerts – Including some which are not quite relevant.

If you select quite "narrow/specific" preferences, you will get only relevant alerts but too few or even none!

Depending upon your experience, you may need to come back and EDIT your preferences a few times until you hit the "Optimum".

ALL PREFERENCES MUST BE SEPARATED BY COMMA

My choices for CITY (Posting Location) are:

8cm HELP

By default, your current CITY is shown above. Altogether, you may select 5 cities

My preference for "Actual Designation/Vacancy/Position"

8cm HELP

By default, your current DESIGNATION is shown above. Select/Enter any FIVE, which are, in your opinion, same/similar/synonymous, in terms of Hierarchy/Level.

My preference for "FUNCTION-RELATED KEYWORDS" are:

Your current PRIMARY FUNCTION (as derived by our Artificial Intelligence Software, GuruMine), is

8cm

The five, most important/relevant keywords associated with your "primary-function" are:

Selection	→	————, ————, ————, ————, ————

In decreasing order of importance/relevance, the other KEYWORDS associated with your "primary function" are

Reference	order	Keyword	order	Keyword
	6		13
	7		14
	8		15
	9		16
	10		17
	11		18

You are free to retain the five keywords shown in selection-, or substitute these with any other appearing in Reference (text{cut/paste/copy). Of course, if you wish, you may select any other keywords from any other functions shown below

My choice of INDUSTRY/EMPLOYER

Most executives tend to grow their careers (advance) in the same INDUSTRY in which they are currently working – (text{of course, there are always exceptions).

So, what INDUSTRY does your current/past employer companies belong to? We need to know that, so that we may send you relevant job-alerts. Since, you are the best judge, Select relevant/appropriate INDUSTRY, for each of the Companies that you have worked for, in the past, shown below:

	Your Employer Company	Ind.	Corresponding INDUSTRY (Scroll and Circle)	∇
1	Cadilla	Pharma	1
2	L&T	Eng.
3	Bharti	Telecom
4	Bharat Forge	Metals		Delta

But may be you are interested in receiving job-alerts from only some specific Companies within these industries. After all, there are thousands of Companies within each industry but you prefer to work for only a few of these.

If you are so particular, no problem.

All you need to do is to tell your personal Software Agent. Just tick the check- against the names of Companies appearing under the INDUSTRY-NAMES, below:

	Industry (where you have worked in past)		No. of Cos.
1	Pharma	bigcirc	2986

In Pharma Industry, there are following 2986 Companies, as shown below. Select those which are your "PREFERRED EMPLOYERS" (text{DCA database)
