Hi Friends,

Even as I launch this today ( my 80th Birthday ), I realize that there is yet so much to say and do. There is just no time to look back, no time to wonder,"Will anyone read these pages?"

TOOL SPIDERS

 

Organisation Chart

Drawing Tools

 

See enclosed cutting from Express Computer. I am sure there must be hundreds of software products available in the market offering facility for an HR manager to construct his own company’s Organisation-Chart.

I would not be surprised if many such software tools are even “freeware” !

I suppose these softwares would permit construction of Orgganisation Charts, as per sample enclose.

Some (software) tools may even permit entering in each “position-slot”, informations such as

Ø  Joining Date

Ø  Birth Date (or Age)

Ø  Cadre

Ø  Current Salary

Ø  Total years of experience

Ø  Educational Qualification

etc. etc.

Each slot / position, becomes a kind of “mini-resume / snapshot-at-a-glance”

Then there could (conceivably) be such organisation charting Tools where when you move your cursor over the “designation position – Name”, a window open-up, displaying, complete

 

JOB – DISCRIPTION

For that position !

 

If a company is systematically organized and has already created a

MANUAL OF JOB-DESCRIPTIONS

For  all positions, in the company, then, to provide such a “mouse-over” feature is not difficult at all !

 

Our (longterm) objective should be to find (-or develop inhouse?) such an organization charting software, and integrate it, with our

Guru AD Compose

 

If we succeed in this (-and we must), then, everytime /anytime, an executive resigns / retire and need arises to fill that slot / vacancy,

All that the Recruitment Manager has to do is to open the organization chart and double-click on the position-slot / Block !

And presto !

Draft advertisement appears before his eyes ! -ready for editing.

As simple as that ! you cannot get any simpler than this.

Recruitment managers around the world, would love this “elegance”.

“No-fuss-recruiting” at its best !

This “vision” should not hold-up development of V1.0 of GuruAdCompose (-for which, I would like to see a project-plan in net 2/3 days), but Inder should continue his R&D along this line (including calling S.K. Consultancy to give us all a demo.

Resume Rater V 3.0

Ø  We discussed this yesterday.

Ø  It has the potential to become a killer App.

Ø  We can develop it using Google Desktop API – in which case Google will host it on their own website ! This can popularize RR V3 in a very big way, around the world.

Ø  I am in two minds – whether to develop RR V 3.0 as,

o   totally separate version, based on Google Desktop.

OR

o   integrate Google Desktop as an additional feature into V 2.0, leaving intact all the existing features of V 2.0

 

I think you will be the best person to judge this issue from technology  application viewpoint.

Ø  From recruiters/users perspective, it would be better if he has to install only ONE version, whether, he wants to search and rate resume lying in

à  A specific folder

Or

à  On entire hard disk

eg. Two clickable buttons of our main page U/I of RR

Text Box: If you do not have Google Desktop  installed on your PC, click her to download
Text Box: Rate
 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 


After you have downloaded Google Desktop, it will take, from a few minutes to a few hours, to index the content of your hard disk. Of course, this is a onetime/first time effort.

Search-results should be displayed as per our existing display-grid, in the descending order of raw-scores

One more thought.

Today, we are dependent upon user resetting the counter, in order for our website counter to change.

Text Box: SAVE ResultsHow can we eliminate this “dependency”?

Can our counter change, as soon as user clicks on some button? eg.

But then, he may not be online at that time!

Nor can we reduce the “reset-limit” from 1000 to (say) 100!

Chances are, there may be 10,000 resumes on his hard disk – all of which, he wants  searched/rated – simply because he is too lazy to select any particular folder.

In fact, the very idea (behind integrating Google Desktop in V3.0) came from the fact that a typical recruiter can only remember the folders that he has created during last 10/15 days – at most.

Whereas,

The best resumes may be lying hidden in folders that he created 2 months/& months/8 months ago!

Who, then hell has time/patience to search through 69 folders created during last 12 months, to find select, those one/two, which are likely to yield best resumes?

This I simply two much to ask!

This is enormous “process-frictions”, which limits the benefits of RR V2.0. this is why we need Google Desktop.

Which means, even the current “reset” limits of 1000 may not work! Will not work!

We will need to raise it to 50, 000! We just  don’t know, how many resumes are lying on the hard disk of a WIPRO/Infosys/IBM/Accenture recruiter!

Of course, I don’t expect “rating process time” to increase appreciably because, like ISYS, Google Desktop has already indexed all documents – and against each document, created a database of several hundred “words”.

Altogether several million – or a billion – words.

Text Box: Specific FolderSo finding  takes a few seconds at most (see how fast ISYS does it).

May be we can employ “reset counter” only when a user uses                                           to rate

and

Text Box: Rate entire Hard disk                           use some automatic (counter update) process when he uses

·                                                                                                    option.

Another thing.

IN RR V3.0, can we “harvest” entire resume, instead of merely harvesting email ID?

Text Box: Rate entire Hard disk                           Of course, we don’t want to harvest all 50,000 resumes on hard disk, again and again 10 times in a day, if a user                                                   10 times a day, for (in sequence),

-          Java

-          ASP

-          VB

-          Ajax

-          Windows             etc. etc.

But,  conceivably, during (or at the end of each rating process), we could harvest only those resumes, which scored 60.  This will eliminate most of “duplication”.

Obviously, during each rating, the nos of resumes scoring 60, will vary, from a few to a few dozen – which is OK.

We will create, on our webserver

-          86 IT skill folders

-          43 Non-IT skill folders

and,

deposit/store the harvested resumes into respective folders.

This way, we will create a huge database of “Scored” resumes (in descending order, too) for all functions and all skills.

WHO TO CALL?

HR Manager

Dear HR Manger/Head Hunter

 

Today morning yesterday you advertise for a “JAVA” professional and received 153 text resumes -flooding your mailbox.

Boss (or client) wants to interview 5 “best” candidates tomorrow! So, you must send out  interview-calls (emails or better phone-calls) by 3pm today.

 

Q:

How can you decide which 5 to all-up? – without reading through those 153 text resumes by 2 pm? You don’t have time and you cannot rely on inexperienced assistants to read and rate objectively. Of course, if those were Profiles (instead of text resumes), then there was no problem. Even your  inexperience  assistant could have re-arranged those 153 Profiles in descending order of percentile-score.

 

But till such time ou must deal with text resumes.

 

No Problem.

 

Just ask our Resume Rate software to

Ø  read

Ø  rate

Ø  rank

those  153 text resumes – all in matter of couple of minutes!

Just follow these steps.

May be, this website gives you URLs  of many newspapers and magazines. Those which are business related magazines, you may want to add to drop-list of URLs  in  HARVESTER. You will find executive names in Business Magazines only.

Deepa / Abhi

Searching for Executive-Names, using  HARVESTER/ GOOGEL combination

We have concluded that, may be 70% - 80% of, the sentences, contain

Ø  Says

Ø  Said

Ø  according to

Ø  “……………………” (Quote marks)

But from enclosed  write-up, I found some more “keywords”, which you may want to experiment with – and if found productive -may want to add into the “Keyword Dropdown list” in Harvester. These are

Ø  lost

Ø  quit

Ø  put in paper/put in his papers

Ø  take over as

Ø  put in (his) resignation

Ø  left

Ø  (has/have) moved on

Ø  (has/have) joined

Ø  has been appointed as

Ø  (He) will take over

Ø  will report to

Ø  Replaces joined

 

Reji / Abhi

Harvester

Ø  Please file this note in the file given to you. I have no copy.

Ø  Enclosed find

à  A few “Express Computer” copies, in which I have highlighted the executive names. I have also circled the keywords which appear somewhere in the sentence which contains the executive’s name

à  Compilation of these keywords. Please remember that this compilation is only for “Express computer”. In the folder given to you earlier there are similar compilations for Business world / Business India etc.

 

Ø  If we plan/intend to carryout the actual “extraction/harvesting” ONLINE, then time-to-harvest, becomes crucial. In this case, we need to have a relatively short list of the keywords (to match and highlight the relevant sentence).

In this case, it would be best to have “CUSTOMIZED” keyword shortlists, one each, for each newspaper/ magazine. The journalists have their own style/ preferences of writing.  Each journalist has his own “pattern”.

Hence in a given newspaper or  magazine ONE PATTERN (of keywords usage) gets established, which, generally does not change frequently.

So, a customized list of keywords would take less time to locate & highlight the relevant sentences.

This means, depending upon the newspaper/magazine chosen by Vitthal/Samta, the software will automatically select the RELEVANT/CUSTOMIZED list of keywords for match-making.

 

Ø  If we were to download pages/articles first and then do the harvesting OFFLINE, then we could afford to merge all individual “keyword Lists” (of all newspapers & magazines) and have ONE/LARGE list. Of course, this would drastically slowdown the harvesting but then, it may not matter since we would be doing the harvesting OFFLINE!

We may, eventually, develop a web spider, which simply, keeps visiting one website after another (based on a pre-decided list given by us) and keeps downloading all the pages. This downloading activity can go on, on one machine, around the clock.

On a second machine, harvesting can go on, simultaneously, but OFFLINE! So, in this scenario of split-working, time for harvesting is not critical. On the other hand, by having a SINGLE/LARGE, list of keywords, we would achieve, a high level of extraction accuracy.

 

Ø  Our eventual goal would be to develop a COMPOSITE/COMBINED

“SPIDER-CUM-HARVESTER’

Which would visit the pre-decided  (Pre-configured) websites, locate the “executive name/designation/company name” and automatically create a database without any human intervention!

But we must take one-step at a time. Let us first come out with version 1.0 as soon as possible, so that we can improve my own productivity 9of manual marking in magazines) as also Productivity of Vitthal/Samta!

 

Ø  In any case, as discussed yesterday, I would like you to capture/store the relevant sentence (in which the name of executive’s name appears) against the name of the executive.

The sentence must also carry the “source-Name” and the (system) date.

Idea is that, if a given executive’s name appears in 4 different magazines at 4 different times, over a period of one year (or any length of time), then by clicking on the name of executive,  we should be able to see/view, all the 4 “sentences” from which his name was picked-out. This way the consultant would get a “HISTORICAL PERPECTIVE/OVERVIEW” of the concerned executive.  This would dramatically improve the probability of our being able to fine and recommend to client – the most appropriate candidate. Such an “automatic” research into the background of a given candidate  would help us check-out his “antecedents”  with  his previous employers. This becomes a very valuable input into our headhunting process.

Resume Downloader

Ø  Rajeev expects to come/install this tool (on the desktops of Consultants) during early this week.

Ø  The tool is meant to download resumes from Monsterindia.com and it is configured for our HW/SW/Databases  etc. It will not work on any other configuration (unless customized)

Ø  To begin with 3P/Strategic HR Consultants may use this tool. After a week Thakur/Mitchelle should give feedback to Rajeev (through Rahul). Good or Bad  feedback – including suggestions to modify to increase the productivity of Consultants still further.

Ø  Since 3P/Strategic HR would like to start sending to their clients “PROFILES” (developed on IndianRecruiter), of candidates, rather than sending “converted Biodatas” (Prepared by Vitthal) 3P/Strategic HR would need to advise (i.e. through email) some/few candidates to go/submit their resumes on

www.IndiaRecruiter.net

Draft of such an email is at Annexure A

Ø  Initially 3p/Strategic HR may send such emails electively to a few shortlisted candidates whose resumes, RESUME DOWNLOADER has downloaded.

Ø  But, after a couple of weeks,  this (ANNEXURE A) will be “hardcoded” into RESUME DOWNLOADER. Thereafter this email will automatically go out to each & every candidate whose resume gets downloaded using DOWN LOADER (as soon as it gets downloaded.

Thereafter, there will be no “choice” !

Ø  Idea behind the (automatic email) is to use RESUME DOWNLOADER tool to market

IndiaRecruiter.net

Ø  This is how:

I propose to give away FREE, this Resume Downloader Tool, to all the subscribers of Monsterindia  (may be more than 10,000?).

 

These subscribers would be

 

ð  End Employers                          (8000?)

ð  Placement Agencies                (2000?)

ð  Headhunters                             (150?)

       

        All of them have the same problem Viz:

Quickly download resumes (of suitable candidates) from Monsterindia, without tieing-up a lot so scarce recruitment executives, all through the day. They also face the problem of limited no.of licenses.

 

By using Resume Downloader, their productivity will go up several fold! It will give the Placement Agencies “Competitive Advantage” as compared to those Agencies which do NOT use this tool.

 

But then, in this world, there is not such thing as

 

FREE LUNCH

 

You end-up paying, oneway or the other!

 

So, those Corporates/Placement agencies who wish to get this tool (for FREE) must accept that from their email ID, email messages (ANNEXURE A) will go out.

 

In return for FREE tool,  they have  to undertake some publicity for

 

IndiaRecruiter

 

No secret, we will tell them upfront.

 

But imagine the consequences  if – and when – 1000 Corporates/Placement Agencies, Start using this tool, to download, everyday, 100,000 (only 100 resume/day/user) resumes from Monster.

 

Now, everyday, 1 Lakh candidates get the message to go/register on

 

IndiaRecruiter!

 

i.e.                  3             million/month

                        36           million/year

 

Fantastic FREE publicity!

 

Suddenly, IndiaRecruiter get  a salesforce of

                                                                                        1000 reputed Salesmen!

 

If this does come about, is it likely that MonsterIndia may find a way to BLOCK access to the Resume Downloader?

 

You bet!

 

I suppose technically, such “blocking” should be quite easy.

 

But, what might that do to Monsterindia, commercially, in terms of 1000 HR Managers/recruiters, who will view such attempt on part of Monster as “monstrous/negative/customer unfriendly/retrograde/aimed at making customer life difficult/aimed at lowering customer productivity/mean/outright harmful” etc. etc. !

 

And, instead of 1000 users, if there were to be 10,000 users of tool:?


 

Dear Sir / Madam

Ø  EXCLUSIVE PAGE

Vikram/Chauvlin

By creating such an “Exclusive Page”, we are shifting our focus to  “Corporates” instead of “Candidates”.

I Strongly feel that we should create an “Exclusive Page” for each corporate whose job-advertisements we are downloading/re-composing/uploading under Project Manhattan. This would be irrespective of whether that Advertiser chooses to fill-up our Questionnaire or NOT. We must provide a mechanism/procedure by which a corporate can ask us to create for him, the “Exclusive Page”. Hopefully, even before he requests, we should have already created such page and all that we need to do, upon arrival of request, is to simply email his “Password”. This way, from day one, he is able to see/view all the past/historical record of

Ø  “GLOBAL RECRUITER”

Sunitha and Vikram

This Software solution

à  Should enable us to “lock-in” thousands of Companies in the use of our “services”/more business

à  Should enable 3P’s recruitment processes/forms to become the INDUSTRY-STANDARD in India

à  By being a WEB-SERVICE (ASP) , should enable us to rapidly build a huge “knowledge-Base” by drawing upon the “EXPERTISE” embodied in hundreds of HR Managers, when the fill-up

·          Job Advt. Forms (weightages/Keywords/Comp. Trends)

·         Organization Charts (Reporting relationship Rules)

·         Job Descriptions (Success-Probabilities/Patterns)

·         Manpower Budgets (Demand Trends)

·         OET 1 (Weightages-Keywords-Company Trends)

 

à  Will enable us to conduct “Permission Marketing”, by commencing “Resume Blasting” to “Global Recruiter” licensees, from 16000 partner Cybercafes under “Operation Lock-In .

à  Will enable us to launch “JAWS” to 600 Newspapers

à  Enable “licensees” to tract/monitor their search-assignments on their own, on our website.

Increase Consultants Productivity

Oval: Medium Priority

Ø  OES V2.0

 

There is a file on this subject containing my thoughts/notes. It is very important to debate these notes with Consultants & their view/Specs  obtained before starting. I also feel we should use V1.0 of OES for at least 6 months before starting work on version 2.0

 

Ø  CONVERTED RESUME  (AGRGIS)

 

There is a file on this subject. This project will speed-up the  Order Execution Process. Today, biodatas (for sending to clients) are converted MANUALLY by Data Entry Operators.  This is a slow process and there is no consistency - also poor quality. Consultants have to wait for long.

(UI given to Deepa)

I have not prepared detailed notes on any of above but some thought /suggestions may be found in

à  Website V4.0/ 5.0 folder

à  Notes scribbled in margins of all the books in my personal library

à  “Expert System” Folder

All of these are very IMPORTANT but Low-Priority projects and would require retaining 2/3 ‘Domain Experts” for 2/3 months to create the “SEED” of the knowledge – TREE & buying Expert-System Shell.

Ø  Graph Generator (on Intranet)

This will help us monitor individual and entire company performance  (Target vs. Achievements) on a cumulative, ongoing basis  for  parameters such as:

 


à  Order booking

à  Invoicing

à  Net Collection

à  Outstanding’s

 

à  All items (heads) of budgeted expenses (as per Annual Budget)

à  “Net collection” graph also shows “Incentive Earned” by each consultant

 

Ø  Integration of OES with TALLY 6.0

Idea is that we should not have to enter financial data TWICE, once in TALLY and again in OES.

Tyranny of E-mails

 

I can assure you this email does not fall into the category of “junk”!

 

It was only 2 days back that I asked Tech-team to develop an Expert System to sort out/eliminate, junk/low priority emails, so that we can focus on only   critical/high-priority emails. I sent them (tech team) a chapter from book.

“Beyond Internet: How expert systems will change the Business”

 

This chapter was  devoted to the tyranny of emails-this mode of communication which was supposed to increase our productivity but which seems destined to “decrease” it!

 

Now  read  enclosed  attachment  which  says  such  an  Expert System is   readily available from

www. Banter.com!

 

That brings us to the second of Parekh’s Principles, Viz:

 

If you come across a problem, be rest assured that, before you , a million people must have faced the SAME problem and ten thousand of them must have found a satisfactory solution to same!

 

Enclosed attachment goes to prove this Principle!

 

Through this email, I am asking ABHi to study this readily available Expert System Software and download for trial. Of Course, it goes without saying that

 

à  this may not be a “perfect” solution

à  your very active participation/feedback alone can make it work.

 

HCP

 

P.S.

In case you are wondering what is FIRST of Parekh’s Principles, here goes:

“ Any Pending Work can be converted into a Panic Situation by Postponing it long enough” (-the other  3P).
