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,

THE ART AND TECHNOLOGY SOFTWARE ENGINEERING A MOSAIC OF MODELS AND METHODS- RAMKUMAR RAMASWAMY





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

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 :

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

Page no. 5

·         We are trying to achieve this, thru our project JAWS/Manhattan/lock.in etc.

·         In our case, our “goods”– are “Resumes,” which need not be physically transported. These can be emailed

·         Corporates who wish to “buy” the resumes.

Page no. 9

·         Sure But has do you anticipate what your competitor will do?

Page no. 12

·         Since we expect jobseekers to login during day time, we would have a lot of incoming traffic (“Apply online”) during day. So we may plan “job Alerts” & Resume forwarding service day. So night “JAWS”

·         Broadcast could be scheduled between 6 pm to midnight.

Page no. 18

·         OES

·         Falls in this category.

Page no. 19

·         In due course our franchisees in difficulties, accessing our mobile 1& OES which are “central.”

Page no. 21

·         Somewhat like” History of shopping carts”/ History of job Alerts/History of candidate Alerts

·         Business Vs. systems Analyst?

·         Analyst

Page no. 25

·         Refining his understanding again & again.

Page no. 27

·         They always do.

·         In my notes of v4.0 (website), low priority applications should take <2/3 days

·         Medium                                                                       <10 days.

·         High                                                                               < 20 days.

Page no. 28

·         Most of my “low priori by” item fall into this category on the other hard my views have undergone a lot of change (requirements) since I first wrote my notes on “JAWS” & “LOCK In,” 18 months ago!

·         (24-10-02).

Page no. 33

·         Our most important data base are  - resumes – job Advt

·         Would Module 1 developed by vexed fall in this category? & OES?

Page no. 41

·         In our case these are mainly: jobseekers & Recruiters but then there are also – HR Managers parent’s students etc.

·         Very true

·         Like our sections for “jobseekers”/”Recruiters/ Alliances”/ HR Mgrs. /parents. etc. (all boxed in).

Pane no. 42

·         Like “member search” screen which was demon started today by Rajeev (25-10-02).

Page no. 43

·         A user should be able to reach his destination data, with 2/3 clicks .No more.

·         On our website, resumes could be searched in 3 different ways.

·         E.g.: most recruiter may want to recruit executives from the “posting city” itself become they know Indians are not much mobile. So a city based resume – search is user- friendly.

Page no. 44

·         E.g.: for Executive search, corporate India’s first choice.

Page no. 45

·         E.g.: A Recruiter can also be a jobseeker & vice versa

·         Side bar links to jump or to quit.

Page no. 46

·         For Executive search, corporate India`s first choice.

Page no. 47

·         Ask 100 recruitment managers, what they think about our homepage. Do they have problem searching for what they are looking.(Navigation-each)

·         Jobseeker vs. HR Mgrs. Vs. students etc.

·         Like seeking “salary data on post job Advt” page it is very relevant.

·         I have not seen this diagram so far. (25-10-02).

Page no. 48

·         This is good idea.

·         Like watching a Recruitment manager conduct a resume search on our site can he do this                                           easily at the very first attempt? OR does he have he have to “lean “(the easiest way), by “Trial & Error?”

Page no. 49

·         Tasks are:

·         Submit Resume                                post a job Advt

·         Search jobs                      Search Resumes

Page no. 51

·         We have done this

Page no.53

·         We should do this.

Page no. 55

·         No. of mouse clicks.

Page no. 63

·         Is like posting a resume or posting a job Advt? In a speaking, both are up for “sale”!

Page no. 64

·         Like a socket where you can plug in a tube light or a lamp (bulb)?

Page no. 85

·         Read ankit Fadia`s book “Ethical Hacking –written when he was 14 years old!

·         Article in today’s Eco. Times (27-10-02).

Page no. 89

·         For us authentication will become a crucial issue when employers & franchisees & remote- working employees & Experts working from homes, all have to access our network, from physically separated locations.  

Page no. 90

·         We would not need credit card numbers unless, someday, we start “selling” resumes online.

Page no. 91

·         This is future scenario

·         This is our main concern.

Page no.92

·         I presume all of our applications are “centralized”

Page no. 96

·         Lowest level?

Page no. 97

·         They are.

Page no. 98

·         Our own staff (Authorize)

·         Our own staff (unauthorized)

1.       Consultants operating from their homes

2.       Interview Experts (from homes)

3.       Franchisees

4.       Content providers (Inputting contant)

5.        competitors

6.       Data base vendors

7.       Tale- marketers

8.       Resigned Employees.

Page no. 101

·         Freeze any one Axis then create a matrix of the other 2 axis.

Page no. 103

·         Abhi – let us evaluate “ASTARO” using such “security Analysis space” (3- dimensioned box)

·         Such as ASTARO vs. sonic-WALL.

Page no. 119

·         Vikram sunitha you may want to read this book (02-11-02).

Page no. 122

·         On our website, we would like to give higher priority to online Recruiters –as compared to

·         “Jobseekers” so anyone clicking on any “Recruiter section” link, gets served first.
