A
LOW-COST/INSTATNT VPN
Nirmit
mentioned to me yesterday that Megha is planning to move to Delhi and he has
asked Abhi/Reena to examine the technical issue involved, if we
- Decide that Megha would operate
from Delhi as an agent / branch / franchisee of 3P or even simply as a “Remote/rest
based consultant”
- Have to enable to Megha to
remotely access (and operate) our Marol-based databases & applications,
especially
·
Module
1 (Member + Non Member)
·
OES
·
ISYS
etc etc.
Obviously,
unless she is able to access / use these databases / applications, from wherever
she lives, she cannot perform her role.
In
this context & understand Reena is asked to explore
possibility / feasibility / installation & maintenance cost etc etc. Of a VPN
(Virtual Private network)
Obviously
such a VPN would enable her to access/use the databases & applications
residing centrally on 3P’s marol network. Equally obvious is that, in course of
time, we would have many more consultants.
- Working from their residences (within Mumbai)
Or
- Working from other cities.
So,
what may be just ONE node today, would, over time, grow into MANY nodes.
If we
plan to cater to corporate clients located in hundreds of cities all over the
country we, most certainly need to locate our consultants / branches in to a FEW
regional - centers. And all of them would need to access/use,
MODULE
1 /OE.
The
question is,
Is
VPN the right way to go about?
I
think, No!
I
think Reqruitguru is THE RIGHT WAY to go about because coming to think of it,
RecruitGuru
is a much superior VPN! (-Overall, with some limitations).
As
for as Resume database search is concerned, we have already created, 3P’s own
/private resume database on RecruitGuru which is far better than MODULE 1.
What
remains is to modify our OES (in. net, and upload on RecruitGuru! (-including
transfer of search-results into online OES)
OES,
modified & upload as an Interview Management Module, will serve ALL
SUBSCRIBERS of RecruitGuru!
That
will enable us to promote RecruitGruru amongst multi office placement Agencies
and multi office corporate employers as
RECRUITGURU
- Your INSTANT, LOW COST VPN!
And
if 3P itself becomes a satisfied user of this LOW cost VPN, by having Megha
conduct all of her activities thru RecruitGuru then, Sanjeev has one more VERY
POWERFUL argument.
By
offering some (primitive?) form of “Order Execution/Interview Mgmt.
capabilities/features on their websites, Monster/ Jobs Ahead etc. have already
moved in this direction! We are the latecomers. They can already claim that
their jobsites eliminate the need for a VPN (-as far as recruitment process is
concerned).
So,
Instead
of spending our time/money/effort on installing a VPN (to facilitate Megha to access/use Module 1 to OES, why not
spend, much less time / effort/money to modify & upload OES on RecruitGuru?
Not only our purpose will get served, we would have added a powerful marketing
tool for RecruitGuru?
In
closing, I enclose
