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,

CITYWISE RESUME SRARCH



Shuklendu       06 Feb, 2011
Resume Search / City‑wise

Background
We discussed this briefly during my visit to your office last Friday.

This morning, Google gave us following ranks:
Search Term | Google Rank
Jobs Archive | 7 / 2.1 Billion
Resume Archive | 20 / 225 Million
Job Search & Resume Search | Not in first 10 pages!!

Apparently, Google does not “link/relate” our website with search terms “Job Search” or “Resume Search”!

So, we need to create additional pages with titles:
▷ Job Search
▷ Resume Search


And, construct these pages in such a manner that Google spider is able to crawl and index,
▷ all of our jobs
▷ all of our resumes

Enclosed: find UI of pages,
▷ Resume Search – City‑wise
▷ Job Search – City‑wise

Many job‑portals do have such “CITY‑WISE” search pages or listings.

You may ask Nitin/Rahul to take these up, after current priorities (sent last week) are over.

In the meantime, we have purchased COMPANY DATABASE (approx. 20 L → 25 L companies) from one Jayesh.

This database contains:
▷ Company Name
▷ Street Address
▷ City Name
▷ Email ID
▷ Industry‑Names {which will need to be “mapped” with our Ind. Names}

In this COMPANY DATABASE there are hundreds of “City-wise” files. But arrangement of columns differ from file-to-file.

So starting today, Tushar has started copy/pasting all the files into new excel sheets with STANDARDIZED columns, with same sequence.

Hopefully, this job should get over in 2/3 days.

Then, we will be able to use this database for:

  • Current “Blast Your Resume” page

  • “Resume Blaster” widget

  • Job Search / Citywise page
    (which is replacing my earlier note/UI of “Jobs in My Street ?”)

With regards

Job Search / City‑wise

Dear Jobseeker,
Yes, there are thousands of jobs around where you live — Jobs for All = Peace on Earth.
Every single employer in your locality has vacancies that are not advertised. So you never come to know of these jobs.
But, from this page, you can send your resume to these employers and tell them you live nearby. And, since all employers prefer “local” candidates, you will get flooded with interview calls!
Why should you spend 3 hours traveling to a distant workplace when you can work close to your home and spend those saved hours with your family?
