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,

3P Technology Division

3P has nurtured a highly talented and motivated software development team during the last year.

Initially focused on developing solutions for 3P’s internal needs, the team has now created cutting-edge recruitment solutions useful for corporate and staffing recruitment.

The team consists of:

  • Senior application developers
  • Database administrators (DBAs)
  • Recruitment domain experts
  • QA engineers

The division is headed by Kartavya Chitalia (CTO) who has several years of experience providing recruitment solutions to Global 500 companies including:

  • Microsoft
  • Disney
  • Wal-Mart
  • Wells Fargo Bank

More details appear on the last page.

 

Technology Vision

ResuMine and ResuSearch are the first of a series of HR software services planned by the Technology Division.

These solutions are based on Microsoft’s .NET Web Services architecture, enabling organizations to:

  • rapidly adopt modern technologies
  • integrate legacy systems
  • connect with ERP platforms

The system also encourages collaboration among software vendors, allowing each to focus on core competencies.

 

ResuMine

Introduction

ResuMine, launched in August 2003, is the result of 13 years of recruitment domain knowledge of 3P Consultants.

It is a powerful tool that:

  • extracts key information from resumes
  • analyzes candidate competence
  • assists recruiters in accelerating the hiring process

ResuMine is an Artificial Intelligence-based software system designed to reduce the time and cost of recruitment.

Beneficiaries

ResuMine benefits:

  • Human Resource Managers
  • Recruiters
  • Department Heads

Important Observation (Very Significant)

Your ResuMine concept (2003) anticipated many modern HR technologies.

It essentially proposed:

Resume Parsing AI

Automatically extracting structured data from unstructured resumes.

This is now used in:

  • Workday
  • Taleo
  • Greenhouse
  • Lever
  • LinkedIn Recruiter
  • modern ATS systems

 

Candidate Skill Intelligence

The idea of creating a “competence profile” from resumes resembles today's:

  • AI skill graphs
  • semantic candidate ranking
  • talent intelligence platforms

Resume Data Pipeline

Your architecture suggests:

Resume Sources

    

Resume Parsing Engine

    

Structured Candidate Database

    

Competence Profiling

    

Recruiter Decision Support

 

SCREEN SHOTS

ResuMine – Fields Those Will Get Extracted (Part-1)

General Information Fields Extracted

ResuMine automatically extracts:

  • PEN (Profile / Employee Number)
  • First Name
  • Last Name
  • DOB / Age / Sex
  • Address
  • City / PIN
  • Country
  • Email ID
  • Home / Work Phone
  • Mobile / Fax

 

Functional Exposure Profile

The system builds a competence profile.

Columns:

ResuMine – Functional Exposure Comparison

This page is extremely interesting.

It shows statistical comparison of candidate skills vs population data.

 

Example Graph

Software Development distribution:

  • Candidate score: 22
  • Sample size: 11,163 resumes
  • Percentile: 71

Meaning:

Candidate is stronger than 71% of professionals in that domain.


Technical Writing

  • Percentile: 70

Network & System Administration

  • Percentile: 59

What This Means

Your system was doing something very advanced:

It was benchmarking a candidate against the entire talent population.

 

What ResuMine Actually Was (Conceptually)

ResuMine had four AI-like layers.

1️ Resume Parsing

Resume → Extract fields → Structured database


2️ Keyword Intelligence

Resume → Keywords → Skill classification


3️ Competence Profiling

Candidate skills → Compare with population → Percentile ranking

 

Recruiter Decision Support

Candidate profile → Match job requirement → Shortlist

 

ResuSearch

Introduction

ResuSearch is a candidate resume search engine designed to help recruiters identify the right candidate quickly once resume data has been structured by ResuMine.

So the workflow is:

Resumes → ResuMine → Structured Candidate Database → ResuSearch

ResuSearch then becomes the recruiter’s discovery tool.

 

Key Features & Benefits

ResuSearch allows recruiters to:

1️ Search structured resume data

Search parameters include:

  • Function
  • Industry
  • Designation level

This means resumes are not just keyword searched but searched based on structured intelligence extracted earlier.

 

2️ Free Text Search

Recruiters can also perform Google-style keyword searches.

Example:

"Linux Kernel Developer"
"Embedded Systems"
"Financial Analyst"

 

3️ Export Results to Excel

Search results can be exported for:

  • reporting
  • analysis
  • recruiter workflow

 

4️ Mail Merge Capability

Recruiters can send emails to:

  • selected candidates
  • entire candidate lists

This was essentially early CRM-style recruitment communication.

 

5️ Competence Percentile Filter

Recruiters can shortlist candidates based on competence percentile.

Example:

Show candidates above 70 percentile

Meaning:

Show only top 30% talent in the database.

This is extremely advanced for that time.

 

Beneficiaries

  • Human Resource Managers
  • Recruiters
  • Department Heads

Mobile: 98755 08 08 (handwritten)

World-Wide-Jobs (WWJ) = Job Nirvana

Jobseeker vs World-Wide-Jobs (WWJ)

What problems does he face? vs How does WWJ solve these problems?


SEARCH

Jobseeker

There are 2,50,000 Job-Adverts on 200+ Indian jobsites. Some 10,000 new adverts are being added daily.
It is physically impossible for a jobseeker to visit a large number of jobsites daily and conduct dozens of job searches.


World-Wide-Jobs (WWJ)

WWJ aggregates job-adverts posted on dozens of jobsites during last 24 hours and creates a consolidated “Jobs database”.
A new / fresh database gets created DAILY.


ENDLESS REPETITION

Jobseeker

A jobseeker must enter his “job-preferences” again & again at each jobsite that he visits – everyday.


World-Wide-Jobs (WWJ)

A jobseeker enters his “job-preferences” on WWJ only once. These are used for matching of job-adverts. Of course, he can come back and “Edit” his job-preferences anytime.

On “Job Alert Preview (JAP)” page of WWJ, he can “experiment” with various “permutations & combinations” of job-preferences, until his “refinement” results in best-matched jobs. Then, he freezes these job-preferences for getting job-alerts on his mobile-phone.


RELEVANCE

Jobseeker

Job searches on different jobsites not only throw up widely different results but hundreds of irrelevant jobs. This is due to each jobsite using:

  • different search-criteria
  • different search-logic
  • different definitions of “Industry / Function / Designation” etc.

World-Wide-Jobs (WWJ)

By creation of a “structured job-advt database” from all jobs downloaded from all jobsites and applying identical search-criteria / logic / definitions, WWJ manages to match & shortlist much more relevant jobs.

WWJ also ensures that all alerts are not from jobs posted on one site. It ensures that matching jobs from several sites get delivered as alerts SMS. Duplicate job-alerts get eliminated automatically.

 

What problems does he face? vs How does WWJ solve these problems?


DELIVERY (Job-Alerts + Resumes)

Jobseeker

A jobseeker must go in search of jobs, hopping from jobsite to jobsite. He needs a PC & Internet connection.
He gets tied to a desk.
He is rendered immobile!

To be able to “apply online”, he must deposit his resume at each jobsite (and very often, by filling up widely differing forms).


World-Wide-Jobs (WWJ)

By delivering job-alerts on mobile-screen (as SMS), WWJ ends the tyranny of PC / Internet. It liberates the jobseeker from “wires”. He can receive job-alerts even while traveling in a car or a train!

Now he needs to deposit his resume, only on WWJ (and only a plain text resume!).
He can “apply online” by a single “SEND” click on his mobile, from wherever he happens to be and at any time of his choice.

This is interactivity at its best – the ultimate convenience for a jobseeker who is hard-pressed for time. JAM (Job Alert on Mobile) converts the handset into a “Transaction Tool” of M-Commerce.

There is also instant acknowledgement of “resume-delivery”, so the “information feedback loop” is completed.


FRESHNESS

Jobseeker

Job searches on jobsites throw up jobs which were posted 30/60 days ago, which are most likely already filled-up, at the time of searching! A hell of a lot of effort / time gets wasted.


World-Wide-Jobs (WWJ)

WWJ delivers to a candidate alerts for only those jobs which got posted on dozens of jobsites during last 24 hours. Never stale / already-filled jobs, posted 30/60 days back (not even 2 days back!).

This feature ensures that a jobseeker will never miss a single matching job – and will never fail to click “apply online” (for fear of never being able to see that job again!).


PRIVACY

Jobseeker

Middle / Senior level executives are most reluctant to post their resumes on a large number of jobsites, where any corporate subscriber can see / view their resumes.

In India, there is a considerable stigma attached to “jobsearching”. It is considered “unethical / disloyal” to current employer, besides raising ugly rumours and spoiling an executive’s career in his present job!


World-Wide-Jobs (WWJ)

WWJ assures a jobseeker the ultimate in privacy / confidentiality, since WWJ has neither any Corporate Subscribers, nor there is a “Resume Search” feature.

Through JAM, a jobseeker decides:

  • Who will see his resume
  • When
  • Why

when he clicks “Apply Online” on his mobile.

Ownership Issue

Sr. No. | Attribute | How JAM justifies OWNERSHIP of this attribute?


1. Aggregation
Downloading jobs from dozens of jobsites.

2. Freshness
Downloads only jobs posted during last 24 hrs.

3. Relentless
Never tires; Works automatically 24×365.

6. Freedom
You are no more tethered to your PC!

7. Simple / Cool
Ultimate convenience of applying online from your mobile.

8. Privacy
No one can ever see your resume! Only you decide WHO will see it, WHEN & WHY.

9. Paradigm Shift
Stop searching for jobs! Let jobs come searching for you!

10. Utilitarian
You pay for only what you use.

11. Convergence
Internet + Mobile Networks.

12. M – Commerce
Transforming a handset into a “tool” for B2C mobile transactions.

15 Minutes Competitive Advantages

JAM – The Incremental Innovation

Kanter Characteristics vs JAM’s Conformance


Tri-able

Kanter Characteristics:
The product can be demonstrated on a pilot basis. Customers can see it in action first. They can try it out on a small scale before committing to replace everything.

JAM’s Conformance:
Even before registering, a jobseeker can see for himself the type/quality of job alerts that he can expect to receive, by experimenting on “Job Alert Preview” page.

By entering any 3 digit no. in the “JAM Sample” box on the home page of WWJ, a visitor can immediately view side by side, the full original job advert and its 160 characters SMS version as he would get to see it on his mobile.


Divisible

Kanter Characteristics:
It can be adopted in segments or phases. Customers can ease into it, a step at a time. They can use it in parallel with their current solutions.

JAM’s Conformance:
When you use JAM, you don’t need to immediately stop searching for jobs on jobsites. In fact, we encourage you to try out both methods in parallel so that you can “experience” the “ultimate convenience” of JAM before giving up on jobsites.

Reversible

Kanter Characteristics:
If it does not work it is possible to return to life without it. Eventually, you want the customer to say, “I can’t imagine life without this”, but in the beginning, it’s important that you don’t burn down the house to demonstrate the new fire extinguishing system.

JAM’s Conformance:
If you are not satisfied, then to Unsubscribe from JAM service is as simple as sending SMS

JAM UNSUB

And then go back to visiting dozens of jobsites in search of jobs

You can always re-join by once again sending SMS

JAM SUB

If you think JAM is not your cup-of-tea, you can always go back to your coffee!


Tangible

Kanter Characteristics:
It offers concrete results that can be seen to make a difference in something that the customer needs and values.

JAM’s Conformance:
A jobseeker “needs and values” data/info re: relevant jobs (matching his unique needs), delivered to him real fast. He hates to be “chasing the jobs”.

In JAM, he greatly values the convenience of “jobs that come chasing him!” – within hours of vacancies getting posted on a number of jobsites.


Fits prior investment

Kanter Characteristics:
It’s in an area where there already have been actions or investments, and builds on them. The product should help make use of “sunk costs” – what has already been spent – rather than requiring customers to take losses.

JAM’s Conformance:
As far as jobseekers are concerned, job searches on all jobsites are “FREE”. They have made no “investment” other than registering/posting their resumes on dozens of jobsites.

If they have invested in a PC + Internet connection, that would still be required for (one-time) registering on

World-Wide-Jobs,

and thereafter for occasional “edit / update”.

 

Familiar

Kanter Characteristics:
It feels like things that customers already understand, so it’s not jarring to use. It’s consistent with other experiences, especially ones that have been successful in the past.

JAM’s Conformance:
In JAM, a SMS job-alert displays the same essential info that a jobseeker gets to see on the screen of his PC (e.g. Company Name / Posting City / Position / Edu. Exp. Age / Exp. / Job Advt. Source / Job Code No.) while conducting a jobsearch on any jobsite.

A jobseeker’s experience of JAM on the small screen of his mobile is identical to the experience of a job search, on the big screen of a PC.


Congruent with future direction

Kanter Characteristics:
It’s in line with where the customer is heading anyway. It doesn’t require customers to rethink their priorities or pathways.

JAM’s Conformance:
Whether a jobseeker locates suitable jobs on jobsites (after expending a lot of time / effort / money) OR he receives perfectly matched / relevant job-alerts SMS on his mobile, his ultimate goal is to

APPLY ONLINE

(i.e. push his resume to the employers at a click). JAM lets him do just that!


Publicity Value

Kanter Characteristics:
It will make the customer look better to themselves and others.

JAM’s Conformance:
JAM is all about “mass-customization”. Amongst millions of jobseekers, it recognizes each one as an “Individual” with his own “unique” needs (as expressed through his own job-preferences).

This recognition of uniqueness results into thoroughly “personalized” job-alerts. If 160 characters of SMS was not a limitation, JAM would welcome/salute/thank each customer by his/her first name!

In any case, a jobseeker will get to view his personal “Job Alert / Apply online History Page” soon.

Resume Alert Mobile [ RAM ]

How will it work?

• This is reverse of JAM. Here, a Corporate Recruitment Manager tells us (through “Resume Preference” Form):

“Whenever you come across resumes, which match my resume-preference criteria, please send me, once-a-day, 160 character (SMS) profiles of all such candidates on my mobile. Then whichever profiles I like, I will ask you to deliver to me, the full resume, by sending to WWJ, a PULL SMS (MO) as

RAM < PEN NO > [ short code ]

I don’t want to wait for conducting a resume-search (which is, in any case, absent on WWJ) OR wait till a jobseeker “Applies online””


Who will it benefit and how?

This is a great convenience for Recruitment Managers.
They have to enter their “Resume Preferences” only ONCE on WWJ. Then forget PC / Internet! Now, profiles of perfectly “matched” candidates are delivered on his mobile, once-a-day, wherever the manager may happen to be.

Mobile Service Provider benefits through increased revenue.


Resume Alert Broadcast [ RAB ]

How will it work?

• The only difference between RAM and RAB is that:

RAM aggregates all matching resumes posted during last 24 hours (on all partner websites) and delivers these profiles to Recruitment Managers, once a day, on their mobiles.

Whereas

RAB delivers the suitable candidate’s profile to concerned Recruitment Manager WITHIN 5 MINUTES of that resume getting posted on any partner jobsite!

No duplicates! No more waiting!
Grab the candidate before your competitor grabs him!


Who will benefit and How?

• The main beneficiaries are the Recruitment Managers, who are expected to fill that vacancy “yesterday”!

• Mobile Service Providers will also benefit, because of thousands of PULL (MO) SMS from these Recruitment Managers, requesting delivery of full resume through email.

 

Company - Specific Job Alerts

How will it work?

• This is a variation of JAM. Here, in the “Job Preference” Form, a jobseeker will specify name / names of only those companies, whose job-adverts he wants to receive, as alert. Other “Match-criteria” such as “City / Function / Designation-Level / Exp” etc may still remain / apply.

Now only jobs advertised by those companies (on any partner jobsite) will get delivered to him as alerts.


Who benefits and how?

• A choosey candidate benefits by narrowing down his choice / preference to a few top / well-known / reputed employers, rather than hundreds of companies operating in any particular industry. He does not wish to get inundated with alerts from these second-rung / also-ran companies.

• By charging Rs. 10/- per such alert / apply online, Mobile service Provider too, will benefit, for this SUPER PREMIUM SMS


Job Advt Broadcast [ JAB ]

How will JAB work?

• In normal course, WWJ will aggregate all “matching” job-adverts for past 24 hours and then send the job-alert SMS on the next day to each JAM subscriber.

However, Corporate HR managers are under tremendous pressure to fill-up vacancies within days. They cannot afford to wait “passively”. They want their job-adverts to reach “suitable” candidates WITHIN HOURS.

Under JAB, jobs posted on our partner jobsites will get delivered to “suitable” JAM subscribers (as SMS) within 15 minutes of getting posted.


Who benefits and how?

• Corporate employers benefit because their jobs will reach hundreds or thousands of “Matching” candidates within minutes of posting their advertisements and start receiving resumes within 30 minutes.

• Jobseekers will get to know of interesting jobs immediately and be first in the queue of applicants by applying online (and generating revenue for service provider)

 

Jobs Across World [ JAW ]

How will it work?

• Currently WWJ aggregates jobs getting posted on major Indian jobsites (during past 24 hours). However we have already developed software to aggregate jobs from American job portals.

Soon, we will offer / send job-alerts for vacancies in Microsoft / GE / Computer Associate / Oracle / CISCO / DELL etc. etc.

And, Indian IT / ITES professionals, working in Chennai / Bangalore / Gurgaon / Hyderabad / Mumbai / Pune etc. (some 850,000?) will get these alerts on their mobiles and will be able to “apply online” to these American Employers, right from their mobiles, halfway across the World.


Who will benefit and how?

• Biggest beneficiaries will be Indian IT professionals (all of whom, anyway want to migrate to USA!)
For a mere Rs. 3/-, they will be able to get their resumes emailed within minutes, to American employers.

• Mobile Service Providers, too will benefit


Jobs For Masses

[ Factory Staff – Clerical Staff – Vocational Staff ]

How will it work?

• Concept of JAM (Job Alerts On Mobile) will stay the same. However, for each of these “categories”, the “Job-Preference” forms and the “Submit-Resume” Forms, will be multiple-choice drop lists and much more narrowly structured.

These will be matched against the “Classified” recruitment adverts appearing on jobsites, as well as in newspapers (with whom we will tie-up)

Delivery of job-alerts will be as SMS.
Same with “Apply Online” (MO) SMS.


Who will benefit and how?

• From large cities and rich people, mobiles are moving to small towns and (relatively) poor people—to reach 200 million by 2008. Most of these mobiles will belong to categories of jobseekers described here.

For these millions, today, there is an “asymmetry of job-related information”. JAM will provide them with a level-playing-field vis-à-vis their urban counterparts. Now, they will have “access” to jobs, around the country.

By reaching out to the “Bottom Of Pyramid” (C. K. Prahalad), JAM will create a huge new market for Service Provider.


Don’t Apply Online

How will it work?

• Senior Executives will “Register” and enter their “Job Preferences” on WWJ, without submitting their resumes. These executives consider themselves too senior to “Apply online” but they are very much interested to know what / how many interesting jobs (at their level) are coming up in the market.

Everyday, WWJ will send them job-alert SMS which match their declared “Job – Preferences”


Who benefits and how?

• Of course, these senior executives will benefit. Upon receiving an interesting job-alert SMS, most likely, they will get in touch with a Headhunter and ask him to make discreet inquiry with the advertising company re: his suitability, without, at this stage, revealing his identity.
