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?"

With regards,

DEFINITION BIO-DATA (RESUME)

Yogesh

 Samples of type’s bio - dates are already given to you. These are quite typical. Some 5% - 10% of the biodatas arrive on fax. The software should be able to take care of these as well.
 Before long we shall start receiving bio - dates.
·     On E : Mail
·     On Floppies
·     By remote "log - in" by candidates
·     Candidates telephonically "dictating" to 3P staff
·     By VOICE - MAIL.
The software should be able to take care of these as well.
While running OCR software (on scanned bio - dates), there is a possibility that 80% ASCII character come - out OK leaving 20% "errors" (spelling mistakes). Normally, these errors are corrected by Data Entry operators on the screen. This operation slows down the entire process.  We would like to eliminate / avoid this operation if possible.
You should examine the possibility of your software to take care of this.

The above is not a comprehensive list. It is only indicative. A comprehensive list prepared, over a period of time, by scanning thousands of bio - datas. This could be done by scanning over 40000 bio - datas lying with us. Even if most of these are OBSOLUTE, the keywords contained in these are not obsolute, so these could be a good starting point for building a comprehensive list.
