· These could be a “family” of graphs for each sub-population of
· Function – wise
· Industry – wise
· Designation – level wise
· City – wise
· Age. – wise
· Once, a large no. of candidates fill-in & submit edited resume with “Career History” section, then we should be able to plot FREQVENCY DISTRIBUTION graphs for “Ave-Tenure / Duration” in each job held.
Pg. No. 36
· I am against installing GuruMine / Guru-Search on local servers of Subscribers (Enterprise Vekions) but, we could consider insider installing on Subscribers’ own webservers – if they have Corporate websites. We can track usage from our own web-server.
· Updating will be automatic.
· Corporates already advertise their jobs on their own websites & even receive resumes
· Where can we get hold of a list of Indian Corporate websites?
· Wipro / oracle India etc. receive > 1 lakh resumes every year.
Pg. No. 37
· This is the USP for our webservice – “Pay per USE”. – do not invest upfront.
Pg. No. 41

· New Reoumes (Image Builders) for old resumes!
· New currency for old currency!
Pg. No. 42
· In our case, “purchase-decision” is
· Do I Subscribe to RecruitGuru or not?
· Do we tell potential clients “why Should you Subscribe to RecruitGuru?
· This is why, each page should start with (1) Der Recruiter (2) Dear HR chief
Pg. No. 48
· RecruitGuru’s Interview-Mgmt. Module, should provide Templates where a company (Subscriber) can CUSTOMIZE, own Compensation Tables / charts / graphs etc.
· which can be used by a Recruiter as “Bavgaining / Negotiating Aid” – to build-up CTC (Cost To Company) from BASIC salary in each grade.
Pg. No. 49
· Look at the standard FORM, which we use to calculate CTC (Cost To Company) for prepaning our Professional Fee InVoice. You may wish to add some elements.
Pg. No. 50
· From “Career History” Section, we plan to pick up “Gross Annual salary” (at time of leaving) & then plot frequency distribution graphs of “where do I stand, salary-wise”. Visiting these sites will help you.

· Job Advt. downloading will stabilize by monthend. In 2 months time, we should have 150,000 ad’s – duly processed by “Auto-Converter”. We should target to launch JAWS by Oct.
Pg. No. 58
· Guru Ad must have these features.
Pg. No. 59
· This too!
· Guru Ad shouldbe able to upload on no. of jobsites AND must have feature to “blast” the job-advt. to “pre-selected” no. of Placement Agencies.
· Job search
· As in case of guruMine, Guru Ad can also extract keywords used in a Job-Advt. & display in a box. In any case, we will need to extract keywords, to plot the Function Profile graph for a job-advt.
Pg. No. 60
· Our search-features (search-parameters) of INDUSTRY / FUNCTION / DESIGNATION-LEVEL, are meant to club together “similar” jobs.
· For resume-search on 3pjobs.com, we already have a shopping cart. I don’t think we had one for jobsearch but we will have one on Recruitguru.

Pg. No. 61
· Clients as candidates & vice-versa
· We are planning “Job Alerts” as SMS on mobiles.
Pg. No. 62

Pg. No. 63
· We are planning to do just the “opposite” in our Jobsearch viz: “AGGREGATION”
· Some 2/3 months after we launch our Job Search, it is quite possible that Monster / Naukri etc. Can be persuaded to daily send us XML database of all of their job advts so that we do not have to download on our own!
· What we plan to do!
· We will approach such corpo. Websites after launch of our job-search. Better to get job-advts. directly from the advertisers than downloading from jobsites! Better to bypass the jobsites altogether!!
Pg. No. 64
· This is exactly what we too are planning with our “Jobsearch” feature! By “flooding” corporate-employers with plain email resumes (thru our resume forwarding free service), we hope to get them to subscribe to Recruitguru – to convert to Imagebuilders.

· ImageBuilder (Guru Mine), offers best of both methods to jobseekers as well as Recruiters!
Pg. No. 72
· Originally, under our logo, I had put this word
· “Career-History” Section
· We have managed superbly! We must send an email to this author & ask him to test-out our GuruMine with a few plain email resumes, see results (graphs) online-and then send us his opinion. If his opinion is favourable we ask his permission to publish this opinion on Recruitguru!
Pg. No. 73
· Maybe, ImageBuilder, (GuruMine), would bring about such a “transformation”!
· With GuuruMine, it will.
· We do not want to eliminate or replace resumes! As time goes, we will mine these resumes deeper & deeper & provide many more “profiles”.
· Real gains will be made, when we introduce the MATCH-MAKER
· Resume -------------
· Job-Advt. -----------
Pg. No. 75
· To be remembered, when we design “Interview Management” module.
Pg. No. 77

Pg. No. 80
· This is the rationale behind our “Interactive Respouse Page”
· recruitGuru will have provision for multiple users from a subscriber.
· I believe Abhi had already implemented such “Intelligent Spider” in Module 1 & I hope, we have migrated this spider into GuruSearch, as well.
Pg. No. 81
· We have extracted & shown them in separate box, next to Profile Graphs. Author Foster should like what we have done.
· Once we start delivering JOB-ALERTS to candidates as SMS on their mobile-phones, we need to only reverse entire process and we (i.e. World-Wide-Jobs.com + mobile phone service providers) are ready to deliver, as SMS, CANDIDATE-ALERTS, to the mobile-phones of Recruitment Managers & charge them (pre-paid) Rs. 5/= to download each resume by clicking on handset!
Pg. No. 83
· Once, we launch RecruitGuru commercially, you must register it on Google & as many search-engines as possible. We must try to get a listing among [TOP IO] results, on keywords “Recruitment” & “Web-Service”.
Pg. No. 84
· We should try to separately register GuruMine & GuruSearch pages.
Pg. No. 85
· We should pay this.

Pg. No. 89
· RecruitGuru, seems like an apt choice.
Pg. No. 91
· We need not get into these.
· When we are ready to “extract” American resumes, we will take help from this Author’s own company (AIRS News), to spread our message to 50,000 American Recruiters (see last page).
· Of cuurse, if we can get hold of email ID’s of these 50000 recruiters, we can sent an “INTRODUCTION TO RECRUITGURU” email
Pg. No. 93
· Is there a “Community” of Indian HR managers / Recruiters?
· What can we do with our subscription to www.Indianrecruiter.com?
Pg. No. 94
· HR Mgr. / Recruitment Mgr. / Personnel Mgr.
· We should give a demo to HR Mgr. under the auspices of NIPM & HRD Network.
· Dose NASSCOM website accept ADVT?
Pg. No. 95
· Ask Nirmit: we are, I believe, a member of this. But no point in publicising RecruitGuru to these 6500 unless, first, we are ready with extraction of American resumes.
· In India very few colleges have their websites (eg: IIT / BHU / VJTI / IIM-A / NMIMS etc.)
Pg. No. 96

Pg. No. 112
· In “Jobseekers’ Corner”, I have talked about creation of a PERSONAL PAGE for each jobseeker – where we compile all historical data about him.
Pg. No. 113
· When we receive, 30,000 corporate email ID’s from Banglore party (Indianrecruiter.com), we will offer them FREE TRIAL.
· We have done this.
· For FREE TRIAL, on recruitguru, this has to be exactly opposite, since we are talking to CORPORATES.
· Job-Alert
Pg. No. 114
· I am sure our corporate subscribers would be delighted to be “greeted” by first name, when they log-in! We have to pamper them!!
Pg. No. 115
· Someday, we will provide a feature, whereby, a jobseeker can compare his “Function Exposure Profile” with people / Sub-population of same
· Age
· Exp.
· Edu. Quali.
· Design. Level
· Etc. (Apple-for-Apple com parison).
· We must have this link on every “Jobsearch” page
Pg. No. 116
· We are most interested in their “Career-History” block.
· Jobs
· Salary-Profiles
· Designation-Profiles
· Company-Profiles (PREPARE)
Pg. No. 117
· 5 lakh job-advts, downloaded from different jobsites (-and also searchable by Company-Name), is certainly not an ORIGIAL content…but such an “Aggregation” (one stop shop) would be the greatest CONVENIENCE for should draw them to RecruitGuru in millions.
· “Convenience”
Pg. No. 119
· Practically, all our email Circulars have “document altachments”! eg: “Get an Interview Call-Today?”. Could this be the reason why we have such a poor response?
· In course of time we should have one each for Recruiters (subscribers) & jobseekers.
Pg. No. 124
· Very few (relatively speaking) Indian Corporates have their own websites-and still fewer have “Career Centres”. If Corporates are happy with Recruitguru, they may not Want to create own “Career Centres”!
· Not true in India.
Pg. No. 125
· If corporates start receiving far more resumes from their Ad on RecruitGuru, yhen after a while, they may stop posting Ads on Mobster / Naukri / Jobs Ahead / Jobstreet etc.! And, this can happen if Guru Ad is really fantastic.
· Millions of jobseekers in small towns source of (job) info. is local newspaper. This is why blasting JAWS to small town newspapers, should be our next step, after online jobsearch.
· Candidates
Pg. No. 126
· Once we have stabilized job-advt. “aggregation” & “Search” on Recruitguru, in our next step of JAWS, we will enable / allow, such “Local job boavds” to configure & receive a daily “FEED” of job-advts, which they can reproduce on their sites.
· This will work in same way as small newspapers (who cannot afford their own correspond dents / journalists), receive FEEDS from
· Reuter
· Asso. Press News Service
· Etc. Which are primarily “Aggregating & Delivery” Agencies. They are not in the publishing business. They are in the DELIVERY business. We want to gain lost of free publicity by giving a way “aggregated” job-advts. Summary to any MEDIA, which is willing to PUBLISH same-jobsites included.
Pg. No. 127
· Some of these questions may help you in preparing Func. Specs / UI for “Manpower Planning Module”.
· Apparently many Indian Placement Agencies mustbe using such tools – since they upload dozens of Advts. davts. Daily on jobsites.
Pg. No. 128
· We should work-out Similar “Costing” for Indian Companies & then launch an email campaign to compare what it costs to post a job advt on
· Monster / Naukri
o [Vs.]
· RecruitGuru
· To investingate & report
Pg. No. 129
· Mktg. May be in India, no Advt Agency specialises in only Recruitment Advts – but all of them, may be interested to use our “Guru Ad” module. Whenever they have to release a recruitment adv. for a client. For this module alone, we may give them a 3 month FREE TRIAL. We can also target U. S. A. Ad Agencies.
· But remember – when, under JAWS, our server starts delivering job-advts directly to hundreds of small town newspapers, these Agencies will not like us! We would be threatening their existence!
Pg. No. 130
· JAWS?
· Will really make us a true MULTI-MEDIA, full service web Agency! Guru Ad will help create job-advts & JAWS will deliver these job-advts to
· Other websites
· Newspapers
· Cybercafes
Pg. No. 131
· (Func. Spec. for Guru Ad)
· Guru Ad should enable blasting advt. to 1500 placement Agencies as well. They will be happy and our corpo. Subscribers too, will feel happy at this free “Image-Building” exercise!!
· Posting job advts. On jobsites require “Subscription” – but no such need for sending advts to placement agencies.
Pg. No. 132
· We could learn a lot by examining such readily available softwares.
· Will Guru Ad take care of this?
Pg. No. 134
· Kartavya / Inder
· Important Func. Specs for “Guru Ad”
Pg. No. 135
· Job – Description

· A set of “standard” sentences would help greatly.
· Pl. provide Dropdown list of a set of “Standard Sentences”.
Pg. No. 136
· For Guru Ad, provide a standard ste of sentences from which Ad-Composer can select by clicking
Pg. No. 139
· In May 2003, in a lecture at Leela, Jeff Taylor, Said Monster, now have 40 million resumes & expect to reach 100 million in 2005.
Pg. No. 141
· RecruitGuru will become such a “third-party career repository”, because, we will “aggregate” job-advt. from all over & deliver to who-so-ever wants to PUBLISH it and, we will attract jobseekers to REPEATEDLY update their resumes, in order to get a FRESH PROFILE, every time.
· Author should be very happy to visit Recruitguru. We must write to him when we are ready.
· This, is precisely the reason, why, we must attract several million-resumes, convert to ImageBuilder & then flood the market with these. We must change the game! (New Currency)
Pg. No. 142
· This is why “Industry” has to be a search-criteria, whether for a resume or for a job-advt.
Pg. No. 143
· We must make RecruitGuru, such an “alternative”.
· Even if we are not ready to “extract” American-style resumes, we could still attract many American Corporates to subscribe to RecruitGuru for
· Searching Indian Software engineers
· Composing advt (Guru Ad) & attracting __ __ __ - thru Job Alerts.
Pg. No. 144
· Even if we charge Rs. 200/= to compose an advt, many American software companies would find our rates “extremely attractive”, especially, if they are looking for Indian Engineers.
· This is going to be our situation too - 3P & Recruitguru except, we are going the reverse way, i.e. from – 3P to - Recruitguru.
· On the other hand, Naukri / Jobs Ahead / Jobstreet etc. are all moving to set-up, brick - & - mortar, staffing services.
· By aggregating job-advts & attracting millions of jobseekers & simplifying resume-blasting, we intend to “flood” the maitboxes fist & then, sell the idea of “ImageBuilder”.
Pg. No. 145
· With ImageBuilder, no need to “Key-in”. then by setting “Percentile-Score” as a search-parameter in Intellingent spider of “GuruSearch”, there would be no need for “Manual Review” either!
· For each of his job-advt, subscriber should be able to set % percentile score parameter in ADVANCE (in Guru Ad itself), so that only those resumes which meet these search criteria are “Sorted / Shortlisted” for viewing by Advertiser & rest go to some DUMP.
· This is why we want job-search by “Company-Names”
Pg. No. 147
· Mktg.
· This is also the UPS of Recruitguru – make your past resumes “Searchable”
· But none provides searchbased on “Percentile Score”!
Pg. No. 148
· Selling electronic “Space”.
· We must offer “Job Market Profile” graphs.
· This is why we too want to aggregate jobs from all jobsites.
· Why will we Survive & grow (in revenue) when FlipDog Closed down? Where does our model differ? (from FlipDog).
Pg. No. 149
· “Myriad” needs a human being – what we need is a web-crawler / soon.
· Pl. visit this site & find out what they do & how
· Is it not quite likely that when we start aggregating jobs from diff. jobsites, corporates may decide to directly post these on RecruitGuru? Monster will not pickup jobs from Naukri (& vice-versa) due to presting issue but we have no such reservations!!
· Author could guess (-and quite well, too) what is on our mind! Amazing.
Pg. No. 150
· If JAWS can galvanise 200 medium size local newspapers in small towns, timesclassified.com will get serious competition & millions of citizens will get level-playing field.
Pg. No. 151
· Besides the major ones (MonsterIndia / Naukri / Jobs Ahead / Jobstreet / Jobsdb), there are dozens of smaller / local) niche jobsites. All of them are also struggling to get job-advt postings, in order to attract jobseekers. Therefore, it is quite possible that, if properly approached, they would be happy to receive & publish JAWS (-a free content, as far as they are concerned).
· They may even agree to post job-advts (individual) FREE! In that case, we could put-up their links on Guru Ad composing tool itself. Our corpo. subscribers too would be very happy to get free job-advt. postings on a no. of smaller jobsites!
· Even Cable TV operators (MSO – Multi Service operators like Hinduja) may be interested in displaying local Ads, in order to attract “Viewership”.
· We do not have many “Specialized / Focussed” jobsites in India
Pg. No. 153
· Our own “process of growing a mass audience” (of jobseekers) is by aggregating job-advts from various jobsites & making RecruitGuru a ONE-STOP-SHDP! If you can find ALL the jobs on ___ . – why should you go to five sites?
· Job-aggregation is our Branding Engine.
· Sampoorna.com specialises in software engineers.
· Thru Job-Aggregation & Subsequent “Resume Blasting” (Apply Online) we, first, want to creat exactly sucha headache for companies & then “Sell” them the Aspirin (GuruMine / GuruSearch / In Telligent Spider)!!
Pg. No. 154
· Our goal is to create such a “tidal wave” for corporates – also thru ImageBuilder (Project E G O).
· GuruMine / GuruSearch will do this “Screening”!
Pg. No. 155
· Just as we plan (in our Jobsearch) that any jobseeker can search jobs by “Company-Name”, so, will plan (maybe we already have) for corporate subscribers, to conduct Resume-Searel by Employer-Company Name! If not let us do fast.
· All resumes on Recruitguru are PUBLIC & “For Sale” (@ Rs. 10/=) download
Pg. No. 156
· This is where Guru Ad should score by affering one click [__] uploading. And especially those sites which permit FREE jobposting you should quickly make a list of such “FREE” sites.

Pg. No. 161
· In course of time, we should cousider a feature (on RecruitGuru) called “OPINIONS” visible to all-even non-subscribers!
Pg. No. 162
· Mktg.
· Once we are commercially launched, you should send an email to the “Moderator” of each of these FORUM / EXCHANGE / NETWORK, to visit RecruitGuru & evaluate its “features”.
· Hopefully, our invitation to visit & evaluate, may start an online discussion amougst their members! A lot of free publicity.
Pg. No. 165
· This is what 3pjobs has become due to our faulty business-logic.
· This is why, whatever jobs we download mustbe processed thru AUTO-CONVERTER & uploaded on same day.
Pg. No. 167
· Mktg.
· Our postential subscribers will ask you these questions. Better prepare a POWERPOINT presentation.
· Job Alerts.
Pg. No. 168
· In “Jobseekers” Corner (note), I have spoken of a “Personal Page” for each jobseeker, where his statistics are stored. If we get millions of jobseekers, this may not be possible,
· We would have, only a few hundred (or thousand), corporate subscribers. It should not be difficult to create a “Personal Page” for each of them. On this page, we can create a few “Metering / Measuring” Tools.
Pg. No. 174
· This is why we must continuously expand our “Non-Member Database”.
Pg. No. 176

Pg. No. 184

Pg. No. 189
· This is really worth experimenting!
Pg. No. 190
· Kartavya / Abhi experimented with this (free demo version), one year back, with no luck as far as Indiay jobsites were concerned. But worth trying again
Pg. No. 192
· 40 million now.
Pg. No. 193
· Sounds challengine
· If you can succeed in “automating the process”, we should seriously consider subscribing to Monsterindia / Naukri / Jobs Ahead & download ONE MILLION resumes in just 3 months of subscription!
Pg. No. 195
· Author will like the name “RecruitGuru”!
· Deduetive logic.
Pg. No. 197
· Candidates covered by same “Function Exposure Profile Graph” (i.e. population) – all belong tosame “communities” and Guru Search, permits searching by “Functions” / Percentiled.
Pg. No. 202
· Is this what author suggests on p; 193 – by way of “Software Drivers & Search Formulas”? can this process be automated?
