When I read any book, I scribble my comments / notes in the margins

·
Not
we! I must have put my first thoughts (communication for productivity) on a few
social networking sites, some 2 years back. Now Alex is placing “customize your
Resume online”
·
On
some 100 websites this should be done in next 8/10 days (19-11-09).
·
We
launch customize resume on (14-11-09). Let us see how blogging helps us.
Page no. xii

In
last 3 yrs., I must have posted over 10,000 Advt on free classifieds websites.
I still post 40/50 every day.

We
uploaded “market yourself | free Resume Blast” on 16th evening. On
17th & 18th some 7300 resume blasts took place. But
none so far today! (19-01-10).
Page no. 3
·
So,
just now (3pm) I have asked Rahul to send email (free Resume Blast) to 209000
candidate email IDs from our webserver. Let us see what happens tomorrow
·
Precisely
our situation I posted my press release (77 yr. old launches 7th job
portal) on some 30+ free press-release websites, in late Nov.09.
·
Not my
problem!
Page no. 4
·
As
a result of last 3 yrs. of online blogging /advertising etc. now I get
10000/12000 search results if I type he-men parekh in Google! Without invested
commas!!
Page no. 6
·
If
you type Executive Search (without commas) in Google, you will find 3p website at
No.1/2/3/4 out of 60/70 million results!
·
Within 1 month of launch even
customize is on 1st page, if you type customize resume in Google.
Page no. 8
·
My core idea behind
“customize Resume.com” (and 6 earlier job portals starting with 3p jobs.com on
14 Nov. 1997 is to change the “online Recruitment process” (19-01-10).

Customization?

This morning I asked poonam
to change the “subject line” (of Resume Blast email) from “Here is an
interesting resume” to I am looking for a career in your company”
·
Idea behind JAM (job Alert

In last 8 weeks, each promo
email campaign brought good traffic for next 2 days.

For us, it has been promo

In last 4 weeks, I have
uploaded my “comments /Replies” on some 30/40 blogs, centered around customize

3 yrs. back (IndiaRecruiter.net),
we had a feature where by a candidate’s Name –in his online resume was
made clickable, to bring up Google search results about that
candidate. For some reason, we discontinued. I plan to in traduce once again in
customize. Resume.
Page no. 23
·
I have planned a similar feature
for incorporating in “job search” & “Resume search” results.
Page no. 25
·
In “market yourself” uploaded
4 days back we are allowing registered candidates to freely download 18800 corps.
Email IDs –even if they do not “Blast Resume. This is a pain- staking
compilation, Industry wise/city-wise. But downloading would require them to
stay ponder on our site- making it “sticky.” Our are Time/visit” is already
close to 6 month &today (39 visits) it is 15 min! (20-01-10).
·
This should further go up by
tomorrow since we are in the process of uploading Download PDF button
for customized Resumes.

The promo emails which I have
been sending for last 3 yrs.

Too expensive Ad words.

I am fast this!
Page no. 32
·
Over last 2yrs. we have
compiled a database of over 3.4 million job-Advt from various job portals this
is a fantastic “archive” Every conceivable Advertiser & every conceivable
vacancy. I am still trying to figure out how I can “leverage” this to drive
more traffic to customize Resume.
·
I should know I have been
doing it for over 3 yrs. promo emails for over 5 yrs.
Page no. 33
·
May be this is why “3p
jobs.com “ranked as follows 5 min. ago, on search term Executive search without
commas (20-01-10).
·
Google -1 / 61.4 million
·
Yahoo – 17 / 744 million
·
Even for search term Resume Blast
·
We (India Recruiter) are on 1st
page both in Google & Yahoo. But still no traffic!
Page no. 35
·
By enabling jobseeker to
·
Blast their resumes Online or
·
Mass-Mail offline after
downloading Resume PDF & downloading 18800 corps. Recruitment Email IDs I hope
to start a buzz.
Page no. 36
·
This is what may be happening
to my blogs!
·
I have registered on dozens!
·
I always use he-man parekh
and everywhere, including on may websites. Also on all classifieds Advt. sites
& social networking sites. May be this is why I get 18000 results in Google
when I type he-men parekh.
Page no. 43

I think so! It is only 2 months
but who knows?
·
I followed this in my 1982-87
circulars “communicating for Productivity.”
Page no. 45

And a lot harder when you try
to become one at the age of 5% and still keep trying at 77!
Page no. 46

May be that`s why I could
launch 3p jobs at the age of 64 and customize Resume to 76!

on resume page this week we
added Download PDF

“free free to download

We enable recruiters to
freely download “Resume rater” tool (from India Recruiter.net and a dozen other
websites) for the last 3 years by now over 12000 copies have been down loaded.

Now that SMS job alert is
unnecessary (since most smart phones full E-mails) we plan to re-introduce
·
“E-mail job alert from
customize Resume, it would be great if jobseeker can Apply online”
·
Directly from their mobiles.
If we can eliminate “job searching “on line. (24-01-10).

Only I am just too old and
tired to start an online community.
Page no. 74
·
Will Recruiters /HR Managers
see “value” in “salary Graph” & salary Graphs”? if they do, will they
insist on customized Resumes?
·
Will a time come when a set
of friends or co-professionals will compare their “Raw Scores” on function
skill Graphs? Then encourage more friends to register on customize Resume?

Soon I plan to add contact

For last 6/8 days, I have
been posting my “comments” on “blogs” pertaining to “Resume writing” Although,
No of visits have been dropping for last 2/3 days, “Time per visit” keeps going
up from 5 mines. to 9 mines.!
·
May be, persons on whose
blogs, I have posted my comments, are turning up to see customize Resume and
then spending a lot of time to check–out whether, what I said in my “comments”
is TRUE. (30-01-10).

Many of these blogs have been

Today, I assigned the next
project to pray, to create a database of HR/recruitment related cartoons (which
I have been cutting out from newspapers for last 3 years and display in one
corner of our website, every time a page is clinked/refreshed (02-02-10).
Page no. 165

Someday, I hope to be able to
display, who (which registered corps. Subscriber or jobseeker) is on which page. That will show all VISITORS, who doing what on our website. Very
compelling.
Page no. 171

I have made the “slogans” a
little bit provocative. Hopefully “cartoons” will do the same.

I am practically worn out
posting “comments” on blogs and “Advt” on free classified websites & press
Notes on press Release sites.

Our very first posting on
social networking sites, 2 years ago, were “communicating for productivity
which are pristine examples of transparency.

I am worried that if I do get
response then I will have to acknowledge it and, may be, enter into diabetes!

Today I discussed with shalka,
the possibility of adding a CAT- ROOM on our website, by renting service like
“paerachat.com” or “U5me.Com.”

“Graphical customized Resumes”
will be our Micro –niche it will be our UNIQUE way of “presenting”

For this very reason, today I
turned down shalaka`s suggestion that we “copy” naukari.com and add a button Apply
online without Registering on each job-advt. (04-02-10).

Today, we hope to add our
first “hook” vis= contact me button on every resume. This will enable
Recruiters to establish contact with any candidate. Hopefully this will boost
credibility of our website.
·
I suppose jobseekers are
fed-up of “Apply Apply, No reply.”
·
Even if a few get feedback
thru this button, buzz may spread that registering on customize Resume gets
result! (04-02-10).

For recruitments we plan to

In last 15 days, I have posted my
comments on maybe 300/400 blogs pertaining to “Resume writing.” Each comment
carries our website URL (www.customize Resume.com) there for all
of these 300/400 blogs should be “linking” to our website will that push-up
“Authority”? Tried but could not find ANY blog under “customize Resume” but
400/500 under “Resume.”

My entire “idea” of a
networking of jobsites and how this will work –is put up on India Recruiter.net
originally, I had prepared this “write –up” for uploading on that everyone can

I have made both as
hyperlinks.

But not everyone is
interested in all types of content!

And even for what every
little (specific) content you are “interested“ in , where is the time?

Somehow, we failed to unleash
this power, despite launching “collaborative features” such as

Page no. 225
·
Along with “slogans “next
week I plan to uploaded about 100, Recruitment /HR related cartoons. May be we
could consider to enable subscribers to contribute by uploading similar
cartoons
·
Our biggest problem right now
is not having enough job-Advt to attract jobseekers to register. Is there a
way?
·
Can get jobseekers themselves
to contribute job-Advt? USE R-GENERATED CONTENT? Most job portals have, a link
on each Advt saying “forward to A friend” we can request jobseekers to
send us Advt. Hay Using this link but why would anyone take trouble? Just won`t
work!

We had such a voting
mechanism in poll-e-Ticks

that is.

This means no conventional
“job search” or “Resume search” on a mobile

I don’t think mobile is the
right device for other surfing or for conducting a “search” or for navigating
thru search results. It is best suited for sending ALERTS (JAM RAM).

Alerts can be based on user
giving his “preferences” on our site thru a pc or ourselves figuring out his “likes”
