MIRROR, MIRROR ON THE WALL

Mirror, Mirror on the Wall

In my yesterday’s note, at the bottom of this Webpage Write-up, I have added,

“Want your current employees to rate you without registering? Send me an email!”

Obviously, no HR Manager would want his current employees to register on IndiaRecruiter and lose them to competitors!

But —
If there was a way/a method whereby his current employees can rate the organization without registering, then quite a few HR Managers may want to explore such a possibility.

In such a method, we would have addressed his fear and still offered him his organization’s

• PIP / rank-score
• relative position (vis-à-vis other companies).

This/such offer may prompt some HR Managers to come forward and ask for our proposal before deciding.

Our proposal (essence) would be as follows:

• On a CD/from email, company will give us a database as follows:

Company Name:
Sr. No. of Employee	User ID

Based on our instructions, company itself will generate User ID / Password for each of its existing employees.

• We will store these in our database (online) on IndiaRecruiter.
• Company will now ask its employees to log into the “EVE calling” page of IndiaRecruiter and login using their unique User ID / Password.
• Our server will match these (in our online database) and honour/accept the same (as valid), without insisting that the person be “registered,” having submitted his resume (a special case).

Would you like me to continue transcribing the remaining four pages (3/6 to 6/6) next, and then assemble all six into a fully formatted Word document titled

“Mirror, Mirror on the Wall — HR Employee Rating Proposal (11 April 2006)”?

As soon as our server recognizes the User ID / Password, it will open up the Rating Form, allowing the employee to fill in and submit.

Depending upon our prior dialogue with the HR Manager, we may split/divide the Rating Form into 3 parts, as follows:

---

RATING FORM

Part A	Company Name: __________________________
Employee Status	☐ Permanent  ☐ Temporary
Designation	☐ Manager  ☐ Supervisor  ☐ Trainee
Length of Tenure	☐ Less than 1 year  ☐ 1 to 5 years  ☐ 5+ years

---

It is quite possible that the company may want to analyze the feedback received along the above-mentioned sub-populations (of employees) and even compare different sub-populations.

(Hand-drawn graph showing different curves for “Trainees,” “Supervisors,” and “Managers,” each with different feedback distributions on an X–Y axis labeled “% of Employees.”)

If the company wants such Employee Feedback (Employee Attitude Survey) to become an ongoing process, they could, over a period of time, even see any shift taking place, e.g.

(Graph showing June 2006 vs June 2007 curves for “Managers,” indicating a rightward shift in satisfaction distribution.)

Such shifts (towards left or towards right) would even tell them (the HR Managers):

1️⃣ Whether there is any improvement or deterioration in the feedback from a given sub-population of employees.

2️⃣ Whether management’s actions to modify/alter certain policies/practices (based on initial feedback) are leading to improvements (a shift to the right).

That would be proof that management actions are yielding the desired results!

Would you like me to continue with pages 5/6 and 6/6 next, and then compile the full 6-page document into a polished Word version titled

“Mirror, Mirror on the Wall — Employee Attitude Survey via IndiaRecruiter (11 April 2006)”?

  Part B of the form will remain the same for all cases (for past as well as current employees — and whether registered or not registered employees).

  We will not allow the HR Manager to see any individual rating form — even though the form does not carry the employee’s name or any other clue to his identity.

  Obviously, a company wanting to use our Online Mirror service would need to register as a Corporate Subscriber (with any partner website).

  Whereas other companies will not be able to see one specific company’s Online Mirror graphs, we will use their overall average score (raw score) and plug it into our DTP formulation to plot graphs.
 They have to agree to this (after all, we are giving a fabulous service, free of cost!).

  Company would have to agree that their Online Mirror graphs

…will also become visible/viewable by any of their current employees:

 • to whom they have issued a User ID / Password, and

 • who has actually logged in and submitted his duly filled-in Rating Form first.

We may agree that the individual employees are able to see/view only the overall graph (for the entire employee population) and cannot see sub-population-wise graphs.

What is our advantage?

• Once, through such free/fabulous offers, we succeed in bringing millions of current employees to IndiaRecruiter, hopefully they will see Sample ImageBuilder and get tempted to register!
