Nitin / Shuklendu, Note
highlighted comments. As far as "Target Completion Dates" are
concerned, these must be religiously adhered to. I suggest Nitin show me the
actual progress thru TeamViewer, now and then, whenever something is worth
showing. This will ensure minimum Re-Working at a later date. hcp

Shuklendu - Resume Blaster -
25/11/2012
In march, you had given me
screenshots of Resume Blaster. I do not envisage any changes in the
process-logic and the no. of screens designed then.
Enclosed find fresh
screen-designs, which are largely cosmetic improvements and a little bit of
change in write-up. Only interesting improvement is introduction of
"Statistical Counters" on pgs. 1/2/4.
I consider display of these
counters in the nature of "self-fulfilling prophecy"! If I am a user
of Resume Blaster, I would be very very "curious" to see if these
counters do change, consequent to my different "actions". That
curiosity will prompt me to do different things on different screens.
Of course, I do not know whether
technically, it would be possible to show—and dynamically update these
counters. Once-a-day may be enough for "Totals".
scan0005.jpg
But we must not give up, even
without trying.
Now, from the very beginning!!
Down-the-line (maybe after 4/6 months), possibility of being able to start a
"VIRAL BUZZ" is simply MIND-BOGGLING!
26/11/12 - Eg:
- Our cookies will pick up all details from the
"Contact List" of each user and store in:
- a) a common database
- b) a user-related database.
NOW imagine following
scenario:
- Ajay Phathak has logged in thru Resume Blaster.
- We (our server) has full "Contact List"
of Ajay Pathak's mobile (Mobile No.) etc.
- Our server "detects" that, from this
contact-list, two other guys have also logged in (into Resume Blaster),
Viz:
- S. Mehra
- Manish Trivedi
- [or even logged in ONLINE?]
scan0006.jpg
On pg #5 (Advt. Place Holder), a
message keeps flashing as follows:
"Dear Ajay: At this very
moment, following of your friends have also logged in: S. Mehra, Manish
Trivedi"
And of course, S. Mehra &
Manish Trivedi, too, will get similar messages. Will they be amazed? You bet!
It could be devastating! They
will talk to each other (VIRAL BUZZ) and wonder how Resume Blaster came to
know. They will "encourage/motivate" their other friends (on their
respective CONTACT LISTS) to register on Customize Resume and log-in thru
Resume Blaster, just to see if the names of these friends, too, appear in the
message! "Curiosity" working for us!!
scan0007.jpg
"Statistics — All
Users" (Page 1)
- I presume these can be displayed ONLY AFTER a user
logs in.
- Till he logs in, the counters will remain blank
(although visible).
- It is possible that (at least) some users may
(repeatedly) login just to see the "changes" in these counters.
- As far as "Nos Logged In" and
"Resumes Sent" are concerned, I do not wish to differentiate
between logins/sent thru widget and online use.
In fact, as a result of this
"simplification," from day ONE (of launch), we will get to see:
- Resumes Sent
- Total so far: 306,407 — a very impressive
fig. for day ONE!
scan0008.jpg
"Your Own
Statistics" (Page 4) Resumes sent by you:
- Total so far: [ ]
- Today: [ ] -> Should this read "In this
session"? That may be easier to track.
Statistics on Page #2
- Total No. of Companies: [ ]
- No. of Companies in "Advt / PR /
Publicity": [ ]
These will remain same throughout
the day once RSS tool has updated the database. If there are points for
discussion, I can visit your office. (Signature - 25/11/12)
scan0009.jpg
26/11/12 For a truly
"WOW" experience, consider following screen. This replaces
"flashing of a message". And it will be shown only as a
"REWARD" to a user who touches/views and "closes" a product
advt delivered by InMobi. He can move on to the NEXT 10 JOBS only from this
screen, even if no "contacts" are listed.
In fact, if none of his contacts
are shown, he may even tell one of his friends to register and login thru
RESUME BLASTER, just to see! Enabling to "dial" is to start a VIRAL
BUZZ.

Mr. Suneet Singh Tuli
CEO
Datawind
Dear Suneet,
- Enclosed find screen-shots of “Resume Blaster”
widget.
- This widget is ready for integration with an Ad
Network of your choice.
- This is to request you to pre-install “Resume
Blaster” on all Aakash 2 / Ubislate 7 tablets, along with “My Jobs”
widget.
- My proposal, justifying this request is enclosed.
With regards,
Hemen Parekh
scan0018.jpg (Why? - Page 1)
Why?
- Foremost, every registered jobseeker may NOT have
matched job alerts; So, “My Jobs” widget is of no use to him.
- This will be especially true of FRESH GRADUATES, in
whose resumes, there is very little to “match”!
- They have:
- NO Industry
- NO Experience
- NO Functional background
- Every year, some 3.5 million fresh graduates are
coming out of colleges in India. They want a job in:
- Any Industry
- Any Function
- Any City
- At any salary
- Any job at all
scan0019.jpg (Why? - Page 2)
- “Resume Blaster” will enable them to apply (forward
their resumes) to some 58,000 + employer / recruiters without bothering
whether they have vacancies or not.
- There will be 2 versions of “Resume Blaster” Viz:
- Industry wise
- City wise
- Jobseekers (fresh graduates) from rural areas /
small towns, wish to find a job, in their own town or nearby city. Resume
Blaster will enable to let them apply to companies located in such nearby
towns.
- Widget frees them from the tyranny of PC /
Broadband, since it will be pre-installed on tablets.
scan0020.jpg (For Whom?)
For Whom?
- As explained earlier, Resume Blaster is primarily
intended for FRESH GRADUATES.
- But it will prove even more useful to students who
have only passed $10^{th}$ standard / $12^{th}$ standard, who are looking
for jobs nearby.
- Millions of such $10^{th}$ standard / $12^{th}$
standard students who are about to receive FREE or subsidized Aakash
Tablets, will immediately start using this widget.
- Even experienced professionals, who get very few
job-alerts through “My Jobs” widget, will also use Resume Blaster.
- Even those who get lots of job-alerts (thru “My
Jobs” widget) will find Resume Blaster, very convenient for choice of:
- Companies
- Cities
