Shalaka, Alex
PHASE 1 - Target
1. Standardized Page Template
We will general follow the pattern of India
Recruiter, except;-
. There
will be few main links on left side for both job seekers & Corporate,
including their "LOG - IN" boxes
. We
must keep rest of the links in SITE MAP. For this reason the SITE MAP LINK
itself will need to be quite Prominent, so as to attract the attention.
. Bottom
line should only carry
.
Email ID
.
Phone no.
. Fax
No.
.
Contact Us
. Right
hand vertical panel should be left blank for Google Advts.
. No
logo, but (preferably) right hand top corner 9above Google Advts) on all page
will carry.
No.
of online Users =
Guests
=
Registered User =
We need to specify freeze some corner on each page
to display STATISTIC COUNTERS relating to the ACTIVITIES being
Carried out on that specific page : e.g.
Page Statistics
.
Submit Resume . No. of
Candidates registered (Daily/ Cumu)
. Post
Jobs . No. of Corpo. Registered
. Resume
Blast . No. of Resumes Blasted
.
Job search . Job
searches carried out No. of Apply online
.
Customization page . No. of
Customizations Carried out by :-
(Trial
Page) . Casual visitors,
. Regd. Candidates
.
Resume Search . Searches carried out Resumes
downloaded.
May be same corner can be used to alternately flash
"TAG LINES/ SLOGANS" (I have give 100 + to Punam)
Colour
We should switch - over to some shade of light blue
background. May be TOP BAR can be dark blue (as in case of 3P website) with the
site - name in hollow / white letters.
Font Size / style
We should "standardize" a separate size
style for:-
. Site
name
.
"LINKS" Names
. Page
Names (on top of each page)
.
Address Format on each page: e.g.
Dear Visitor
Dear Recruiter
Dear Subscriber
Dear Executive
.
General write - up texts on each page
.
Counters
.
Taglines/ slogans
. Click
- buttons
. Table
- columns Heading (Forms/ Search Results)
. Field
- Names (in various forms)
. Tab
titles.
Colours of Form - Tables/ Search - Tables
I suppose these will need to be dark blue (instead
of current dark brown) with white letters.
Colour of general text / write ups.
If the background of all pages is LIGHT BLUE, then
what colour of text characters/ alpha, will contrast and stand - Out? Black or
white? Will need to be experimented.
While parsing some fields may fail to extract
altogether, leaving field blank.These should be highlighted in some manner so
as to draw the attention of Job seekers to these fields in order to EDIT.
Within the text resume, we should highlight (by
different colour?) those "Words/ Values" which were picked up by our Parsing
software & entered into "Contact Details" block.
This will go a long way to impress the candidates
(-and recruiters) with the powerful logic of our parsing software.
We should not have the counter say
"No. of Jobs Posted =
Because 99% (or more) of the Job advts. Uploaded
will be thru RSS feeds (or Spiders to be developed in future) from various job
portals. Therefore our counter will read :-
No. of
Jobs =
IT
Jobs =
Non IT
Jobs =
But in Admin Tool, "No. of Jobs Posted"
will refer to only those jobs actually Posted by our corporate subscribers.
Same logic will apply to :-
No. of
Resumes
IT
Resumes
Non -
IT Resumes
But, we must know, how many candidates Click on our
promo email visit their "PERSONAL PAGE/ MY PAGE", edit "contact Details" & then Submit.
So, we must have DAILY CUMULATIVE counts of Promo.
emails sent out:-
. No. of
Positive responses
. Ratio =
Comu. Positive Response / Comu. Promo. email sent =
%
This ratio alone will tell us whether our
"Marketing" of website thru parsing & sending - out promo email
is working or not !
Unless at least 5% of candidates respond
positively, we may have to think of other methods to promote our website.
Recommendation System
I have already given 2 earlier notes on the subject
which are exhaustive.
which "version" (out of 3 permitted) of
"Customized" Resumes, can a job seeker use while
- Applying online
-
Resume Blasting
I have explained this to Shalaka, as follows.
Once, after creating a "Customized"
version, candidate clicks SAVE a box will pop - up, asking candidate to
"NAME" this version. It can be saved only after NAMING.
When a Candidate LOGS - IN on :-
- Job
search page
-
Resume Blast Page
It is too early to talk whether in future phases of
"Customize - Resume". we will have Interactive Interview Tool,with an
online database of Interview Questions.
Most certainly in PHASE 1, We will not have IIT.
But let us incorporate at least following :
When Employer opens a text resume (during Resume
Search) keywords pertaining to ALL the 5 "Functions/ Skills" graphs SAVED by the candidate get highlighted.
Then these can be clicked to bring up
"Definitions" from wikipedia/ Google Definitions.
