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,

WHAT WILL BE - DERTOUZOS

 




====================================================================================

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


These reflect my views / opinions about what the author is saying – including my disagreement

Often, my comments are in the nature of telling myself :

Hey ! We should try out this idea in our own business ( Head-hunting / Online Recruitment )

Following are my comments re :

  WHAT WILL BE -  DERTOUZOS

·         Compare with my report “QUO VADIS” (1987).

 

Page no. 6

·         We launched our website on 14 Nov.97

Page no. 8

·         AOL-TIME WARNER (2001) & HP-COMPAQ (2002), are major examples of mergers.

·         Written in 1997, this book (anchor) could not have been more correct eg: net initiative of Microsoft

Page no. 9

·         Which happened in 1981.At L&T Institute of technology, I purchased 12 PC`s in 1982 from MINICOMP for Rs.1 lakh each-with 8086 processor.

Page no. 10

·         So, he had anticipated DOTCOMS as well!

Page no. 11

·         Our “match making” service  our “shopping-Baskets” are really “consumer Inquiries” our IT Resumes

·         My vision “KAL-CHAKRA will also come true in 2/3 years. I will be sharing this in tomorrow`s 1st Annual conference of 3p. (09-05-2002).

·         Within 2 yrs. we could ask our clients to conduct video-interviews like this, with candidates sitting in our office.

Page no. 12

·         I have mentioned this in the METATEXT of our website instead of candidates travelling to far corners of earth; “work” will travel to them.

·         Chat-rooms.

Page no. 14

·         A placement agency.

·         Job-Alerts (our website software robot new does this automatically without human intervention.

·         But this Para was written in 1997.

·         Middleman (i.e. placement agency) eliminated! Process automated.

·         1997

·         Even in 2002, it continues to be far from complete!

·         Quo VADILS

Page no. 27

·         This is how I learnt the

·         Working of a 1401 (IBM) computer at the uni. Of Illinois, in 1956 and this is how we used same IBM 1401, at L&T in 1969, a 16k machine occupying 1000/1500sqft.

Page no. 32

·         See my notes “the nature of our business” in which I have said that the 2wheels of our business chariot are computers & telecom. (12-05-02).

Page no.33

·         AOL/TIME WARNER merger of 2001

·         We are into this

·         We debated this at length in our first Annual conf. of 3p, yesterday & decided to stick to our core competence in Executive search only (12-05-02).

·         Do what you Know BEST stay focused.

·         This was written in 1997-eqully true today.

Page no. 35

·         Because these companies have already established the last mile network & have the read. Bandwidth.  This is why all tele. Co`s are also trying to provide internet access thru their but with limited succeed so far. (12-05-02).

Page no. 38

·         Our own scenario:              (middleman) 

·         OES+module1                /          3p consultant         client

·         Our client cannot reach/access our OES/module1, by passing our consultant gradually, we must remove this “human intervention”& enable client to “self-service” himself. This is our goal.

Page no. 40

·         Chaos theory

·         “Evolution” as in go logy.

Page no.  41

·         If we expect and want our clients to directly log in & use our integrated (module1+OES), by passing our consultant, then that software would need to be extremely user friendly having some simple ICONS to click on!

Page no.42

·         This has to be the KEY feature of all the software tools that we develop.

·         This is what I call “PIN-POINT” search, using KEY-WORDS, in addition to other, broader search –parameters such as

-          Industry – Function – Desig.level – Edu. Level – max Age – Minim Exp – city –salary etc. etc.

·         Especially building –up of KEYWORDS KNOWLE GE BASE

Page no. 43

·         This why I keep saying a huge resume database is one of the walls of our “House of success” what I shared in yesterday`s Annual conference. (12-05-02).

·         Like our own attempt to make 1500 smaller placement Agencies, our “Affiliates.” Within the smaller framework of India, this (network) could give us similar monopoly in our business our offline Resume CD will be such a broad cast 5000 Recruiting Managers!

·This is similar to buying NON-MEMBER data bases from vipul Jhaveri. (Buying) wholesale/then retailing).

·         What Microsoft is trying to do. How soon?

·         Bandwidth optical fiber cables network

Page no. 46

·         This is the reason, china has decided to link-up its vast territory thru cellular network which is growing 1 million per month.

·         Already went bust due to

·         very expensive instruments 

·         Very high airtime charges (~$15-20/min.)

·         Roaming facility Introduced by cell-phone operators. (13-05-02).

Page no. 51

·         For a long time I have dreamt of giving away (free), our web forms/our database structure & our search engine, to all jobs sites/placement agencies/even individual corporates (for their websites). Then this system would become “defacto” Industry standard!

·         this is why we must continue to focus on recruitment agencies. We want to achieve this (goal) thru our various “Affiliate programs.

Page no. 55

·         This was written in 1997 but even in 2002, voice-recognition technology has still to catch-up.

Page no. 57

·         Not yet exploded in last 5 yrs. since this book was written!

·         I suppose/hope visitors to our website can fill-up all forms using speech, by 2007.

·         Just now such machines are reaching (or about to reach) the market.

Page no. 60

·         I have described a similar “process” in my notes on ARDIS (Artificial Resume-Deciphering Intelligent software) written to HUGH/CYRIL in 1996

·         Every resume carries a “unique combination” of KEYWORDS that profiles that person.

·         Once, we have compiled a million keywords and 100,000 resumes to which these KEYWORD combinations belong, we would, by comparison, be able to determine –Industry – Function –Responsibility level of that new person (the fresh resume). (14-05-02).

Page no. 61

·         Context

·         I suppose, with many different “sounds” being picked up by the EAR the “brand” learning improves thru neural network.

·         ARDIS (-and also ARGIS) too is narrow DOMAIN OF Resumes.

·         Or typed

Page no. 62

·         100,000 resumes might contain “variations” of no more than a 1000 sentences & “combination” of no more than a million keywords.

·         Combinations   

Page no. 63

·         Similar to 60000 resumes in our database

·         We can think in terms of Resume domain –job Advt. or INQUIRY domain.

Page no.69

·         Read about the concept of 000 PS machine in “QuoVADIS” written in 1989.

·         That (-concept) was 8 years before this book was written in 1997.

Page no. 70

·         This is exactly how I described 000PS in 1989.

·         Omni present

·         Omni potent

·         Omni scient 

·         “Pragna Parmita.”

Page no. 72

·         This because a human brain has 100 billion neurons! 

Page no. 74

·         With a large database of “keywords ”picked-up from an equally large database of “resume, we would develop a software to “FIT” these “WORDS” into expected “SLOTS” of –Industry – Function – Designation  (16-05-02).

·         Considerable progress made on this front since 1997

Page no. 75

·         Given that a “resume” belongs to a particular – Industry – Function – Designation combination, what “key words” may we expect to find? Or vice-versa, given a unique set of keywords (in a resume can I safety predict that it belongs to

·         -x Industry

-          Y Function

·         -Z Designation? 

Page no. 78

·         Eg: a jobsite like ours has very little use, if any of multimedia.

Page no. 82

·         Automating “business processes” we plan to Interconnect - our website – module1 – Messaging tool-cum search Engine (CA) – bwolives.com – OES etc. (17-05-02).

·         I would like OET/1 Inquiry screen of OES on website so headhunters can “Kick-in “ (set-in –motion) the OES directly, on their own, without our intervention.

Page no.83

·         OES, module1, CA etc. belong to this category these give us competitive advantage.

·         Eg: no matter, what kind of manpower planning systems, thousands of corporates use, we would like all of these to talk to and interact with our OES. This would be ultimate in self –service.

Page no. 86

·         With 100,000 unique KEYWORDS found from actual resumes, we will create a “language” for recruitment; we will also need to create 10,000 KEY PHRASES, used in resumes & job- advts. This task is basic first step.

·         Recruitment Managers & job-sackers.

Page no. 87

·         Job-reservations & manpower reservations, are not very different.

·         Human use of Human Beings” by Norbert Weiner (1957)

·         Since this was written in 1997, some anti-spamming software’s have emerged.

Page no.   91

·         These tools are now commercially available.

·         Broadcasting

Page no. 93

·         In our case, scenario could be

·         Consultants working from home

·         Interview  Experts also video-interviewing from their homes

·         Candidates being interviewed sitting in our office in front of a camera

·         Clients joining in video interview from their offices in distant cities.

Page no. 97

·         On our website, we will group key words according to their “meaning” then ask jobseekers to “click/add/delete” words within each group to complete his profile.

Page no. 98

·         Anjaria & Inder sethi, highlighted some 1500 key words to day (from~ 90 resumes). This is the beginning of our finding tools & organizing tools. (17-05-02).

·         Next Abhi/Rajeev will develop “automated finders.”

Page no. 100

·         Some 5 years back, I had compiled “frequency” of key words appearing in a sample of 100 resumes. Now we have embarked on a similar project for 10.000 resumes. The resumes themselves will be sub-grouped – Ind. Wise – Function wise - Designation wise & some co-relation (co-efficient) to decide “weightage.” Of key words (12-05-02).

Page no. 109

·         Our scenario in 2005:

·         -Owners= Recruitment managers

·         Auto- procedure=linking his company`s “Manpower Budget” with our own order Execution system (OES) to initiate search for right candidate arrange interviews etc.

·         Microsoft’s Net or oracle`s 9i?

Page no. 110

·         We want recruitment managers to “self-service” by using our OES (albeit, vastly simplified) and our resume database, as if these on his own local computer. This is just a small part of the “KAL-CHAKRA” which is our STAGE, on which all ACTORS play their parts (Group work).

Page no. 114

·         Somewhat similar to – broad casting jobs summary from around the word (or any location) – Resume forwarding service

·         Accumulated “job service History” & “resume search History” will be used to decide what to broad casting deliver.(e,g. Amazon.com).

Page no. 115

·         Once we Know name of a company we know its “products services. That tells us which other companies are in the same business (Industry). Then all we need to know is “Designations” of its employees & then go

·         Amazon.com out & find Person executives having same/similar designations, working in companies! Same profile can be generated by analysis of job-advts released by that company. 

·         Keywords-in a Resume/job Advt.

·         Thin & large ones are already available but not yet affordable.

·         And most certainly a time will come (may be by 2050) when people will feel “bored” with all these new art forms and wish to flee back to serenity of an ordinary sculpture or a landscape painting or a violin concerto when they wish to relax and be entertained. (19-05-2002).

Page no. 155

·         What would a million van Gogh/10 million Shakespeare /100 million Tagore do to you? Is man kind ready for the great flood? Will there be anyone “extraordinary”? 

·         Already the capability to “access” info data/images/text etc. on the internet has exceeded a human brain`s capacity to “absorb” & “retain” & learn”!!

·         And what would that do to human psychology? Who can swim thru this ocean of knowledge without droning?

Page no. 157

·         Sure, There will be millions of enticing ways in which to interact with the worlds of past/present & future but there just won`t be enough “time.”

·         Provided you can afford them!

·         We are working on an “Executive Janam Kundli” (life History) as part of our OES. (29-05=02).

Page no. 177

·         Although a neural net software, may itself, “learn” thru trial & error.

Page no. 178

·         In our own scenario of “Remote video Interviewing By External Experts” I envisage that the Experts computer screen would have

·         Candidate`s Resume with photo

·         A score card in which to enter the marks/the grade/the score, against “attributes

·         A set of objective/subjective “questions” (to be asked) which are relevant (with correct answers, too)

·         Job profile supplied by 3p`s client for this position. (30-05-2002).

·         And may be candidate`s screen would display- company profile/job profile/posting – city profile/salary profile etc. – Draft Appointment Letter etc.

Page no. 179

·         When I tried this method manually in 1966, when vishesh was 6 years old, Bharati got mad & asked me to stop teaching vishesh!!  This way my method 36 years ago.

·         This was Bharati`s point- since in my method, vishesh`s homework never got done! I was a human “glorified index.

·         My car driving sleills were tested on such a simulator, in Kansas, way book in 1958- long before PC`S arrived-quite similar to today`s video-games.

Page no. 183

·         Construct your own “knowledge/skill/Attributes” (like, write your own poem?)

·         Profile

·         This is like our online software flashing a set of key words as soon as a person enter his

·         Industry (or company nice) – Function – Designation level. He  can then add/delete to this list which is culled from resumes of hundreds of similar executives in our database

·         This set (of keywords) will keep changing as he enters his Ags/Edu.Quali/Exp etc etc.

·         We would have such a software ready in 6 months. (30/05/02).

Page no. 185

·         Read my note on VIP= virtually Immortal person (written around 1995/96)-

·         May be sent to Cyril.(02-05-02).

·         This approach is the same as asking our consultants to record (annotate) on each resume they “STUDY” why they “consider” it Excellent/Good/fair or poor, in relation to a specific requirement of our client. To record their “reasoning” which to incorporate in Neural net software.

Page no.188

·         In fact as universal connectivity becomes a reality and millions of persons can “connect-up with millions of persons at the other end of a wire (or an airwave) the limitless “options” (connections), will forces hard choices one can spend a lifetime talking to thousands of persons purposelessly – persons whom one will never meet “in persons”! would we have any time left to do anything “purposeful” in life?

Page no. 189

·         Websites are just the beginning of this charge.

·         Satish  Doshi of sampoorna floated WWW.global R2R.com, an virtual employment exchange (a super resume database) thru which a headhunter can “access” resume database of any no. of jobsites this did not catch-up due to faulty business-model & revenue sharing model. But the idea is good in itself.

 Page no. 192

·         Latest buzz-word is KM=management.

·         Our Executive search service also relies on info. 100%

Page no. 193

·         Also our “resumes.”

Page no. 195

·         Our KAL-CHAKARA envisages consultants working from their homes. What it does not show, is franchisees across the country sharing /using module 1 OES/CA etc.

·         In our case, this is any company which just lost an executive thru resignation/ retirement/death. Such a company need a “replacement” & fast too! We must target such companies provided we have suitable resumes in our database.

Page no.196

·         After reading our “terms” in advance, if a client fills-in our online “inquiry” from (OET1 of OES), then, he sets in motion, on his own our entire order Execution process.

·         This is like searching a suitable candidate who lives close to the client specified “city of posting” in less “up-rooting” for the family.

·         Such a database will tell us what kind of execs they will hire in future

·         For this we need to create a database of all job advts by all leading companies of India.

Page no. 197

·         Over a period of time, we will transfer to the software tools (CA/Module1/OES/ARDIS etc), some of the “kills” required to be used by consultants at present. Such a transfer of “skills” to software will mean we can have less skilled consultants to executive our orders.

·         OES already does this for us.

·         In our case, this would require following persons to constitute & work as a TEAM to executive any search assignment:

·         Consultant (home)

·         Interview Expert (home)

·         Research Associate (office)

·         Franchisee (distort city)

·         Admin Asst. (office)

Page no. 198

·         Nature loves “patterns” (-and has rules for the same) – read “Digital Biology” (P=144)- by peter Bentley. Resumes too, follow set patterns (depending upon “species” of a resume).
