(alias
.. An Exercise in Business Process Re-engineering)
We
are a “brick-and-mortar”, executive search firm. As far as our website a
concerned, it enables us to conduct our business
·
Faster
·
Cheaper
By
allowing us to “automate” some of our business – process.
The
business – processes which have been
automated so far, on our website are :
Database
Creation
·
Jobs Database
Corporates
post their job advertisements on our website directly on their own (without any
intervention from our side and thereby create a searchable database of
vacancies / positions)
·
Resume Database
·
Jobseekers post their resumes directly
& create a searchable database
There
is no effort on our part to create these databases
Corporates
Database
Search
Here
what we have done is to create and install appropriate search-engines on our
website. This is a one time effort. The actual business-process itself
(viz.”searching”) is carried out online by the interested parties! Like in a
super market, the jobseekers and the recruiters, pick-up what they like, place
these in a Shopping Basket and email it to us. Our work starts thereafter
The
latest feature that we have recently added (as far as Resume-search is
concerned) is
Magic
Cube Search
When
a jobseeker submits his resume on our website, he identifies himself as
belonging to a specific
·
Industry
·
Function The key
search-parameters of a jobseeker
·
Designation level
Using
this data, our software, automatically places this candidate. Into each of the
following matrix, viz:
·
Industry Vs. Function
·
Industry Vs. designation Level
·
Function Vs. designation Level
When
a head hunter clicks on any of these links (matrices), he is able to see, at
once glance, how many jobseekers, our database carries, in EACH CELL OF THE
MATRIX. Clicking on any “cell”, reveals, the resumes of the jobseekers
fulfilling that particular criteria!
As
simple as that.
And,
if you are a head hunter, by simply looking at the relevant matrix, you know
·
Whether there are any candidates in our
database, which fulfill your search-parameters
·
How many such candidates do we have
If
a particular ell is empty, no need to waste your time, searching for such
candidates. You Know in advance that there are none!
This
Magic Cube feature will be soon extended to jobs Database as well.
www
is all about making a surfer’s like simpler/easier/faster!
Following
are a few other features that we plan to introduce on our website, before long:
Auto
Job Search / Job Alert
A
jobseeker will fill in his job search-parameters only once. Thereafter,
everytime a “matching” job gets posted on our websites, he will receive an
email alert
Very
shortly, we will WAP-enable our website, so that the job-alert can be delivered
to him on his mobile phone(WAP)
We
have also initiated a dialogue with www.unimobile.com
to deliver these job-alerts as SMS messages on normal mobile phones
Suitable
Candidate Alert
This
service will be very similar to job-alert. It is meant for Corporate Recruiters
who will submit on our website, ONCE, the search-parameters for a candidate to
fill up a vacancy
Everytime
a “matching” candidate submits his resume on our website, the concerned
recruiter will get an email alert
Job-Advertisement
Query
Under
this feature, each job-advt. posted on our website will be automatically
treated as a Resume Search on our online resume database and “matching” resumes
will be forwarded to the concerned advertiser
Resume
Form Download
This
feature will permit a jobseeker to download any resume form,
Disconnect
internet connection, fill in resume offline, re-connect to website and upload.
This will save online time/cost
Actual
Designation-Based Search
There
are many designations which are unique/peculiar to an industry and difficult to
“equate” properly to a “designation – level” for example
·
Copywriter
·
Visualiser
·
Auditor
·
Content head
·
Technology Head
·
Web-Master etc.
Soon,
we plan to introduce a resume-search, which is based on “actual” designation
(in addition to the existing search based on designation level).
Order
Tracking
Under
this feature, a Corporate client will be able to track his executive search
assignment online and seek online help/assistance from a call-centre manager
located in our office.
Job
Market Trend Analysis
This
feature will statistically analyse all jobs getting posted on our website and
develop / display, frequency distribution graphs, for the guidance of the job
seekers (especially fresh graduates)
These
graphs will be generated
·
Industry-wise
·
Function-wise
·
Designation-wise
·
City(of Posting)-wise
·
Education Level-wise
·
Age-wise etc.
In
course of time, software will be developed which will collect/pick-up job-advts
posted on other job sites and carry out similar analysis, to develop
macro-analysis of the job market
Annexure
VIII(Concld)
Compensation
Trend Analysis
Using
gross-compensation data picked up from the resumes posted on our website,
exhaustive frequency distribution graphs will be generated for different
parameters, listed in the earlier paragraph
These
graph will be of immense use to
·
Job seekers
-
To assess his/her own market value
·
Recruiters
-
To negotiate salary
-
To devise compensation structures
Man
Power-Plan Integration
This
feature will enable any Corporate to integrate its own annual manpower plan/golden
handshake plan into our website and completely “outsource” its recruitment /
downsizing business process to 3P. Many companies are planning to outsources
its HR functions, which do not constitute their “core-competencies”
