Enclosed find:

Foremost, every registered jobseeker may not have matched job-alerts — so “My Jobs” is of no use to him.
This will be especially true of FRESH GRADUATES, in whose resumes there is very little to “match”.
- No “Industry”, no “Function”, only City (no “Experience” either!).
And every year, some 3.5 million fresh graduates are coming out of colleges.
They want ANY job / ANY where / in ANY industry or function.
“Resume Blaster” will enable them to apply to some 60,000 Employers/Recruiters, without bothering whether they have vacancies or not.

So far, online from our site 2,54,187 resumes have been blasted!

(Obviously, by those 1800 registered candidates only.)

As explained above, Resume Blaster is primarily intended for FRESH GRADUATES, and any other “registered” jobseeker who gets very few or NIL job alerts.
Of course, I would not be surprised if even those who do get lots of job-alerts also start using Resume Blaster to send their resumes to “Companies of Choice”, even CITIES of their choice.

Feature is offered ONLINE (No widget)
Resumes can be blasted to only 1000 / 2000 companies (no selection).
Jobseeker must pay between Rs. 1000 / 2000 for this service — and in advance, online.
Job portals never reveal the names of these 1000 / 2000 companies to jobseeker!

✅ We will earn revenue through InMobi Ad Network.

To 60,000 Employers (Businesses)

Thousands of businesses sell their products/services to only other businesses.
Your company could market its services to thousands of other companies.
Imagine the convenience (and free-ness) of sending your marketing message to many companies directly from your smartphone.

We should take up development of this widget as soon as “My Jobs” gets stabilized and runs smoothly.

In the meantime, please give some thought to this concept.

We can sit down and discuss further whenever you are ready.

With the considerable experience gained during the development of My Jobs,

I think it would be relatively easy and quick for us to launch:

“Resume Blaster”

Once we have developed the required pages,

we will request Geetha / Revathi for the widget itself.

"Resume Blaster" widget will enable a jobseeker to blast his resume to INDIAN companies only.
- Hence, unlike the ONLINE version, there is no need for a dropdown of "Country Names".
Unlike in the ONLINE version, in the widget:
- There will be no city-wise search of companies or recruitment agencies.
5255 recruitment agencies to be merged into the industry named:
- "Consultancy / Services" industry.
Within each industry, companies will be listed alphabetically.
Since 20–30 unique company names get added daily to the database (industry-wise), these need to be inserted at appropriate alphabetical positions.
From each Company Name List (industry-wise), the next 10 names will be picked and delivered each time.

A jobseeker logs in and selects a particular industry.
This requires tracking of industry-wise/company-wise "names" delivered to every registered jobseeker.
But:
- We will not keep track/log of:
  - Which companies he selected
  - Or did not select
While touching the Blast Resume button:
- Those "Company Names" will not be shown again.
- Gone forever! No second chance.
Exception: Many companies are listed under 2/3/5 different industries — That is OK.
Advantage:
- No need for APPLIED / NOT APPLIED buttons.

Even within same industry name, a company may be listed in multiple cities.
Example:
- Industry: Air Conditioning
- Company: Godrej
- Factories in: Pune, Mumbai, Delhi, Cochin
Recruitment managers at each location may post job ads:
- On different job portals
- For different positions
- In different cities
- Under different email IDs

So, for same industry (Air Conditioning), screen #4 may show:

[ ] Godrej (Delhi)
[ ] Godrej (Mumbai)
[ ] Godrej (Pune)
