Dear HR Manager

10,000 Recruiters ?

All over India, there could be more than 100,000. But there are atleast 10,000 recruiters working with 2618 Recruitment Agencies / Headhunters. Almost all are professionally qualified ( MBA ) with 2/4 years of experience in searching / head-hunting / interviewing / evaluating candidates.

So, if you are in urgent need to hire a recruiter,

> Simply Register

http://www.indiarecruiter.net/wfrmEmployerNewRegistration.aspx

> Post a Job-Advt

http://www.indiarecruiter.net/wfrmEmployerpostjob.aspx

> Blast Vacancy

http://www.indiarecruiter.net/wfrmvacancyblast.aspx

If you have a vacancy for a recruiter, there is no better / faster way to get your message across to potential candidates !

58000 ?

-----------------------------

Dear HR Manager / Recruitment Consultant

58000 ?

That’s right.

On Feb. 29, 2008, your co-professionals rated 58000 resumes, using

Resume Rater

http://www.indiarecruiter.net/wfrmresumerater.aspx

- though daily number averages 7000 + (except for weekends !).

But such records do not stand for long – especially when 4120 + HR
Managers / Recruitment Consultants ( including Kelly Services ) are using

Resume Rater

http://www.indiarecruiter.net/wfrmresumerater.aspx

You may want to download it now.

Then , during your next visit to

www.IndiaRecruiter.net,

look out for a link “ Vacancy Blast “.

That will, forever, change the rules of the online Recruitment Game, by
offering you the ultimate in outsourcing !

71 minutes of Fame !

Date :03/03/2008

Dear HR Manager / Recruitment Consultant

71 minutes of Fame !

You have heard of,“ Everybody has his 15 minutes of fame”.

Siddique Kazi (Nuvista Technologies ) had full 71 minutes of fame, by being at the TOP of

Our Subscribers

http://www.indiarecruiter.net/wfrmSubscribersList.aspx

list, on March 13, 2008.

That is, until Prakash ( Real Craft ) came along and registered 71 minutes later to usurp the FIRST place !

Only to be overtaken by Harsheeta ( Accel Frontline ) 37 minutes later !

Will you be the next to top

All that matters

-----------------------------

Date :02/04/2008

Dear HR Manager / Recruitment Consultant

All that matters

It does not matter who you are.

All that matters is that,

Ø You are a domain –knowledge expert
Ø You are keen to share your knowledge with other knowledge- seekers
Ø You know that knowledge does not “ subtract” when shared – it only “multiplies”
Ø Knowledge – sharing is a two way traffic

Then, why not

Share You knowledge ?

http://www.indiarecruiter.net/IIT/wfrmIITaddqUESTION.aspx

You have the power to make

http://www.indiarecruiter.net/

a Wikipedia of “Recruitment – your own domain.”

And that matters !

With Warm Regards,

Awkward Moment

-----------------------------

Dear HR Manager / Recruitment Consultant

Awkward Moment

During an interview, it is common to find a candidate at a loss for an answer.

But, have you ever been on an Interview panel where the interviewers run out of questions ? I mean “relevant” questions .

Happens more often than we would like to admit !

It is not difficult to imagine “ why ? ”

On http://www.indiarecruiter.net/., we have lists of

78 IT “Skills”

http://www.indiarecruiter.net/wfrmpolytics.aspx

and

43 Non – IT ” functions”.

http://www.indiarecruiter.net/wfrmpolytics.aspx

And there are 5 “ Designation Levels ”.

This is, by no means, an exhaustive list !

No one can expect the interviewers to carry print-outs of relevant interview-questions, for all possible situations.

Hence, it is common to come across such awkward moments of deafening silence !

But such moments are entirely avoidable if you would just download

Interviewer

http://www.indiarecruiter.net/wfrmInterviewer.aspx

With its built- in database of 15000 + interview questions, (which pop-up when you click on any keyword in the resume), you are unlikely to ever run out of relevant questions !

Dear HR Manager / Consultant

A swallow does not a Summer make !

True
Nor do a mere 33 resumes make a job-portal.

But on

http://www.indiarecruiter.net/,

we don’t have resumes. We have 33

Profiles : the new currency of Recruitment

http://www.indiarecruiter.net/ProfilesSampleNonIT.doc

(- which is why, we are NOT a job-portal ! )

But then, 33 Profiles was more than enough to convince 270 Corporates / Recruitment Agents / Headhunters to

http://www.indiarecruiter.net/wfrmEmployerNewRegistration.aspx

( Free ), as

Our Subscribers

http://www.indiarecruiter.net/wfrmSubscribersList.aspx

These include Industry-Leaders such as :

Ingram Micro, Feedback Ventures, Cummins India,,Wheels India, L&T, Naukri.com, CSS Corp ,Covansys, ABC Consultancy, Tata Elxsi, Oracle, Headhunter, Manpower, Teamlease, Trianz, Sartorius, Panacea, Indian Smelting, Jindal Stainless, Wipro Technologies, BPL Life-Science, HCL, Deloitte Consulting, VXL, Tata Power, MSEB, Sanofi Aventis, HDFC Life, SBI, , Novanet, L&T Infotech, Datamatics Staffing, Mahanagar Gas, Mukand, Hitachi, Hindalco, Cable Corp, GEA Process, RCF, Mastek, TMI Network, Human Capital, United Phosphorous ,3P Consultants .etc.

But before registering, each subscriber convinced herself / himself, by converting a plain text resume into a beautiful graphical Analytical Profile , by simply pasting that resume at

Doubting Thomas

http://www.indiarecruiter.net/wfrmDoubtingThomas.aspx

( which requires no registration / login )

your name will appear at the top of

Our Subscribers.

http://www.indiarecruiter.net/wfrmSubscribersList.aspx

We will feel honoured if you can spare a few moments to comment at

Celebrity Opinions.

http://www.indiarecruiter.net/wfrmCelebrityComments.aspx

When you wish to interview any candidate using Interactive Interview Tool ( with 15000+ online Interview Questions ), just tell him to register on http://www.indiarecruiter.net/ ,get his PEN ( Permanent Executive Number ) and phone you. Next enter the PEN at

IIT ( Ocassional )

http://www.indiarecruiter.net/wfrmOccassionalIIT.aspx

and start asking some of those 15000+ questions ( over the phone ? ). Your boss will be amazed at your “ in-depth “ knowledge of nearly every subject ! And for every question ,you also see a “ Wikipedia “ answer online !

Dear HR Manager

Communicating For Productivity

As a very important link between

Ø Management, and

Ø Union,

You have the crucial responsibility to convey Management’s views to Union ( and vice versa).

I played that role at L & T, some 25 years ago. To find out how, just type in the following search-engines , search term

Communicating for Productivity,

When it comes to Search Term [ Pay Per Use ],

Pay Nothing

Ø for Job Posting [ http://www.indiarecruiter.net/wfrmEmployerPostJob.aspx ] ( with autofill of Keywords )

Ø for searching / downloading resumes

A Soloman come ?

Dear Friend

Of Jobs and Resumes

-----------------------------

Dear HR Manager / Recruiter

A Soloman come ?

In Bible, it was king Soloman who delivered judgements. Closer at home, we had our own wise king Vikramaditya who passed out verdicts.

You , too need to play that role day-in and day-out, while interviewing / evaluating / assessing candidates. We can help you there.

Why else would leading search-engines rank

http://www.indiarecruiter.net/

as follows ?

Hint :

At Doubting Thomas, ( http://www.indiarecruiter.net/wfrmDoubtingThomas.aspx)

Candidate Assessment sheet gets displayed after you paste a resume and generate profile. Then you can fill it up online / download / email it to your colleague / client, directly from our website.

Dear HR Manager / Recruiter

A Different Experience

Most jobportals present to you,

Ø Resume Database

Ø Job posting

But http://www.indiarecruiter.net/ is much more than a jobportal. It is a platform from where you conduct your Recruitment Process. To get a feel of this totally different ( and exciting ) experience, you need to visit Interview Question And Answers

http://www.indiarecruiter.net/wfrmInterviewQuestions.aspx

( No Register / Login required )

When I say, “ This is interactivity at its ultimate ”, even search - engines are in agreement !

Dear HR Manager / Recruiter

Rh+ is a odd-man out !

No question about it.

What has a job portal got to do with a blood group ?

Sure, a job portal is a “ resume bank ” – but certainly not a “ blood bank ” !

But then, may be, search engines have their own logic. Why else would they rank

http://www.indiarecruiter.net/

as follows ?

You will need to spend less then a minute, at RH Positive

There was a time when search engines merely counted the keywords appearing in a webpage, to determine its “Page – rank”. But things are very different now. Search engines have acquired “ Artificial Intelligence” and become “well –read”!
