When I read any book, I scribble my comments / notes in the margins
Pg. No. XVI
·
So, if we
sound “nice” to our clients, our service too will seem “nice”!
Pg. No. 4
·
No one
ever “asked” for job-alerts to be delivered on mobile-nor being able to click
“Apply”. I just believe, jobseekers would love this “convenience” – when it
became available.
·
I must concentrate right now on “How can I get JAM to beat
the jobsites”?
Pg. No. 7
·
If JAM
“triumphs” on its very first launch (with Airtel-hopefully in next 8/10 days),
it could well turn India, into a nation of JAM-ers”. It has to catch the fancy
of millions of unemployed.
·
(02-01-05)
·
“Where
jobs come searching for you”.
·
Senior
execs May never click on their mobiles – but may still subscribe to JAM – to
keep track of high profile jobs in the market.
Pg. No. 9
·
With JAM,
there is no question of “Celebrity Endorsement”. Celebrities never look /
search for a job!
·
But we
certainly need Authors / Editors / Journalists / HR managers to “proclaim &
welcome” JAM revolution!!
Pg. No. 11
·
What
about some “implied” endorsements from (1) CII (2) FICC (3) NIPM (4) National
HRD Network (5) NASSCOM (6) ERA etc.?

Human
Capital & Job-Net
Pg. No. 12

I have
compiled email ID of 130 & given to Bharti Airtel PR Dept.
Pg. No. 14

This is a
quote from Arnold Toynbee (Historian)
Pg. No. 15
·
I hope
this holds for JAM
Pg. No. 17
·
A good
slogan
Pg. No. 18
·
An
interesting co-relation between seemingly unconnected “attributes” (within
limits +36)
Pg. No. 19
·
Predicting / Forecasting,
based on some obvious pattern in a dataset? – With Co-efficient of Co-relation.
Pg. No. 20
·
Read
“Thinking on your Fact”
Pg. No. 23
·
“Image
Builder” (version of resume) is perfection-but it is too daunting for
jobseekers-so we dropped it – at least till JAM takes deep roots (i.e. Millions
of Subscribers).
Pg. No. 24
·
No
“steady-state” only up or down!
Pg. No. 26
·
In JAM,
we will add features for which, we can write software in ½ days. Then see what difference
does each make to “No. of Subscribers” growth.
·
There is
no alternative to “trying”
·
JAM is
entirely a “Service” business.
Pg. No. 27
·
For us,
it is
1.
WWJ / JAM
2.
Recruit
Guru / Global Recruiter
3.

That’s a

(Mission)
·
To make
job-related info. Available to all jobseekers everywhere.
Pg. No. 32
·
Our goal
is to get 10 million JAM subscribers by March 2006.
·
(04-01-05)
Pg. No. 39
·
I
certainly belong to this group!
·
(17-01-05)
·
I will
know when we lauch JAM on 19th! But it may take more than a few days
to know whether people love JAM.
·
The only cheque!
·
This is
why we have listed 200+ jobsites on WWJ.
Pg. No. 40
·
For us,
“Selling Info”.
Pg. No. 41
·
I have
prepared a promo email, giving this (Similar) example.
·
Especially
true of Travel-Sites.
Pg. No. 45
·
I have
repeatedly mentioned this – on WWJ as well as in promo emails.
·
(17-01-05)
Pg. No. 46
·
Yesterday
– from just 5/6 sites, we downloaded 7900 jobs, posted during last 24 hours! On
Internet there are 40,000+ jobsites! This is why JAM may succeed.
Pg. No. 48
·
And New
York Times on Sunday with 1600 pages!
Pg. No. 49
·
I have
said this again & again in promo emails
·
(20-01-05)
Pg. No. 50
·
I hope,
“simplicity” of JAM will inspire 6 million jobseekers to register for JAM.
·
Quote.
Pg. No. 52
·
JAM is an
invisible “service” rendered digitally.
Pg. No. 55
·
I have
repeatedly stressed – “WWJ is another jobsite”
·
Pg. No. 56
·
We are
NOT a jobsite
Pg. No. 57
·
We have
built JAM around this theme.
Pg. No. 59
·
Even though
“privacy” is not a big issue with Indian jobseekers, we have guaranteed them
privacy by eliminating “Resume Search” on WWJ.
·
(20-01-05)
·
Some (on tradition
here)
Pg. No. 60
·
I plan to repeat again &
again
·
Re: No. of Subscribers / No. of
job advts. / No. of job alerts sent as SMS. These statistics would be a clear
“proof” of our achievements.
Pg. No. 62
·
In India,
this still works – although we will not entirely rely on this
Pg. No. 70
·
Read, “Who
does not need JAM?”
·
(210-01-05)
Pg. No. 87
·
Then the
Americans should love JAM!
·
(21-01-05)
Pg. No. 89

On back
of my business-card
·
World-Wide-Jobs
-
Where
jobs come searching for you on your mobile
-
Where you
“apply online” with a single click from your mobile
Pg. No. 93
·
See p. 89
Pg. No. 96
·
I
believe, our homepage visual (graphic) does this.
·
(21-01-05)
Pg. No. 122
·
This is
fine
·
But, I am
not sure about this part!
Pg. No. 133
·
I have
used some “catchy” titles for our promo emails.
Pg. No. 134
·
Also
“visualthesaurus.com”.
·
(22-01-05)
Pg. No. 138
·
May be JAM
will accelerate this
Pg. No. 139
·
This is
why I chose “JAM”
Pg. No. 149
·
We have
done just that – 3P for headhunting and Recruit Guru for job-alerts
Pg. No. 152
·
On
World-Wide-Jobs, we have not used Recruit Guru’s Logo anywhere.
·
For me,
ownership of word JAM is more important.
Pg. No. 153
·
Contradicts
p= 151. It will take longer for people to remember ------ than JAM
Pg. No. 156
·
Recruit
Guru implies that we are in recruitment (services) business.
Pg. No. 158
·
“Guru”
has become international – India’s contribution to management jargon we are The
Guru of Recruiters worldwide
·
Karma
Mantra Pundit – are other Indian words.
Pg. No. 160
·
We also
have a website called “worldwidejobs.com”. so we do run the risk of confusion
with our own World-Wide-Jobs.com
·
But I
feel worldwide jobs is more difficult to read then our own.
·
Fortunately,
most jobseekers need to visit our website, only once.
Pg. No. 162
·
Someday,
we will advertise:
·
“We are
No. 1 – but not a jobsite”.
·

Nothing
unusual about our World-Wide-Jobs, but it does convey what our service is all
about

Pg. No. 166

CMT
·
I did not
know this!
Pg. No. 167
·
We wish to
convey the “attribute” “AGGREGATION / AGGREGATOR” by saying World-Wide-Jobs.
Pg. No. 168
·
World-Wide,
hopefully conjures up the image of the vast expanse of countries around the
world.

Pg. No. 169
·
I don’t
know if this (asking) is a good idea. May be you would get FOUR different
opinions (Excellent / Good / Fair / Poor)!
Pg. No. 170
·
For us,
it would hardly matter, whether jobseekers remember, World-Wide-Jobs (which is
routinely description). What is more important is that people remember JAM.
Pg. No. 173
·
World-Wide-Jobs
is geographic name but its “positive” aspect is that it does not refer to any
one Country / Region but entire world.
Pg. No. 175
·
Monster /
Jobs Ahead / Job street / Naukri etc. are already established and likely to be
better remembered as compared to WWJ
Pg. no. 176
·
We have
decided to ask jobseekers to send SMS “T JAM” on 8484. Will people remember,
sound of Music, “T – a drink with Jam & Bread”? But highly unlikely since
99.9% of users may have never heard of “Sound of Music”. They are born after
1970!!
Pg. No. 177
·
JAM
Pg. No. 178
·
Who does
not like JAM – with bread? And there can be no bread without a job!
·
(23-01-05)
Pg. No. 179
·
JAM
should be easy to remember.
Pg. No. 181
·
I hope,
this will get replaced by World-Wide-Jobs.com, in the next edition of this
book!
·
(23-01-05)
Pg. No. 184

On WWJ
homepage, we have combined graphics (of a globe & mobile phone) with
alternating headlines: where jobs come searching for you on your mobile: where
you “Apply online with a single click on your mobile.
Pg. No. 197

I have plans
for this
Pg. No. 201
·
Read,
“JAM – a harbinger of Hope”. We sell “Hope / Dream”.
·
(24-01-05)
Pg. No. 205
·
Soon we
will find a way to deliver job alerts exactly at the time which subscriber
specifies. He must control the “process”.
·
This is
why the slogan on our website, just below a jobseeker’s photo, says, “You Are
Wanted”
Pg. No. 209
·
30%
Americans are obese.
Pg. No. 220
·
We too have
too many pages / write-ups on WWJ – and much of it repetition.
Pg. No. 257
·
I believe
JAM will bring about recruitment revolution in India.
·
(25-01-05)
Pg. No. 260

(25-01-05)
Pg. No. 276

This is
what JAM tries to remedy. No job search on jobsites
·
Will
jobsites try to fight JAM?
Pg. No. 277
·
I hope JAM
belongs to this category!
