HOW
MANY WAYS?
See
enclosed tabulation. Have I missed out any other method of applying?
Of course, all cases will require that the candidate concerned has first
submitted / posted his resume on one of the partner websites. If not, a message
will flash:
Dear
Jobseeker,
Thank you for wanting to use our Resume Forwarding Service (Apply Online).
We would be happy to serve you – but we can’t find your resume in our database!
To submit your resume, click on REGISTER.
– Rahul
Irrespective
of the case / method / instance (in all cases), only ImageBuilder
version — with Function Profile Graphs — must be forwarded to the
concerned advertiser or placement agency (in case of ResumeBlast).
We
may attach plain-text resume in addition to ImageBuilder.
Do
you see any problem?
One
important rule:
In
“Submit Resume” form, under Personal Information block, a
jobseeker first fills in some 13–14 fields about himself.
Then,
at the bottom, he cuts / pastes his plain-text resume and clicks:
Extract
Knowledge Profile
I
presume, at this point, GunMine will kick in and process the text resume
and extract 23 fields.
These are the same fields as in “Personal Info” block!
But
obviously, field-values entered by the candidate himself in the “Personal Info”
block are accurate / correct / latest / updated.
Whereas,
GunMine may
→ fail to extract a value, or
→ extract a wrong value.
But
we cannot make manual / visual comparison — impossible!
So
the safest thing to do would be to:
- take
correct values from Personal Info block
- insert
these in ImageBuilder — ignoring the values extracted by GunMine
(“Behind-the-scenes”
manipulation.)
As
far as the candidate is concerned, he will be amazed at the “accuracy” with
which GunMine has succeeded in extracting values from his plain-text
resume!
Of
course, his focus at this moment will be on:
- Keywords
extracted
- Function
Profile Graphs generated
If
this substitution / replacement of values in ImageBuilder is done
properly, then there will be no need for the candidate to edit the
ImageBuilder.
And
when an employer receives an ImageBuilder (along with original text
resume), he has, of course, no means to know / figure out how exactly GunMine
managed to achieve such great “accuracy”!
Next,
we must have a button on Submit Resume form which reads:
Download
Your ImageBuilder
Obviously,
this would require showing / displaying the ImageBuilder to the candidate and,
at the bottom, flashing a message:
Dear
Jobseeker,
Every time you Apply Online, along with your text resume, we will forward to
the Employer / Advertiser your ImageBuilder too.
Before downloading, please ensure that there are no mistakes / missing data in
ImageBuilder. Edit where required.
