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?"

Covering Letter

Mr. Suneet Singh Tuli
CEO

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


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

Hence only “match” is on “CITY”.

▶ 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
• any job at all
• at any salary.


Why?

  • "Resume Blaster" will enable them to apply (forward their resumes) to some 58,000+ employers/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, wishing to find a job in their own town or a 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.


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 10th standard / 12th standard, who are looking for jobs nearby.

  • Millions of such 10th standard / 12th 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 thru “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

REVENUE MODEL

  • All major job portals offer Resume Blast feature,
    But,

    • Feature is offered ONLINE (No widget)
    • Resumes can be forwarded to only 1000/2000 companies (NO selection)
    • Jobseeker must pay between Rs. 1000/2000 for this service – and in advance, and online thru credit card (?)
    • Job portals never reveal the names of those 1000/2000 companies to jobseekers


As against this, our “Resume Blaster” widget will enable a jobseeker to:

• Select Industries / Cities / Companies
• Blast any number, any time, over a period
• Do this OFF-LINE
• Do it FREE


REVENUE MODEL

We (Datawind & RecruitGuru) will earn revenue thru pre-integrating widget with some Advt. Network.


The widget screen where Company Names get displayed, will show only 10 Companies at a time.

Once a widget user has selected & applied against one or more of these Companies, he will be enabled to fetch the next page containing 20 more company-names, only by touching / opening / viewing a product-advt delivered by the Advt. Network.


This mechanism will ensure that, in every login session, a widget user will touch/view dozens of product-adverts.
