RE: Updates - RE: City wise search functionality on JobSuggest Page

Rohan

On Saturday afternoon I sent you an email from home, saying that on my PC at home, I could view only cities from A to B ( Bhilai ) at Job Search

I immediately checked with Shreyash in office and asked him to check up.

When he did, he could view ALL the cities ! So I concluded that there was something wrong with my home PC !

Using TeamViewer, Shreyash tried to locate / correct fault on my home PC but could not.

Now this morning, Shreyash / myself find the same problem from office.

Do you suspect there is something wrong with our settings / browser ? We are unable to see cities beyond Bhilai.

The city wise search is fully implemented now on Job Search page along with performance optimizations. Also fixed all the issues and bugs that we found during the implementation.

Could you please check and let us know in case of any issues or bugs you come across?

From Monday 11-APR, Abhijit would proceed to implement same on Resume Blast page. We would involve Hardik too while me make such changes and work on enhancements so that he would better understand the flow and code.

Thanks,

Rohan

Partial functionality for City wise job search on Job Suggest page is complete with optimum performance. We have uploaded it today evening.

Shivani has found few bugs on Job Search page after City Wise search functionality is implemented. Thus Abhijit is fixing those and work is still in progress. Will keep you posted.

I don’t understand what “ new “ changes I asked to introduce.

Counters on “ Resume Blast “ drop lists were already there earlier. I don’t even know who deleted this, when and why ! I was not even kept informed by who-so-ever took the decision !

Any way , I leave it to you to decide what you can do and what cannot

Hello Uncle,

Let’s not introduce new changes and features or re-introduce something when we are beginning Handover. Perhaps these new changes could be taken up by new team.

As you are aware Abhijit is new and before he could actually take a dive inside and become more productive, you have terminated the contract and introduced new Vendor. (I remember even Priya took at least 2 to 4 months before she actually could be productive for major changes in the portal) Thus major changes in the features are not possible at this stage.  What we can certainly do is have the city search but the existing site framework having lots of spaghetti and unmanaged code makes it complicated and time consuming to handle large no of advertisements. We are certainly working to optimise the performance but if that demands major changes then those would be abstained.

Also, we were somehow managed to get Alex onboard for this Handover and transition so let’s completely focus on Transition to new team in light of your short notice period.

Thanks,

Rohan

I took a cursory look at the “ City wise job search “ and experienced what you describe.

I am sure you will find a practical answer which loads , not only the drop list of Cities fast, but also loads fast, the large no of job advts within a given city.

Perhaps something like the Alphabets [ A  B  C  etc ] found in Resume Blast page.

Talking of Resume Blast page, I have a vague memory that , above each display, “ Total No of Companies ( or was it “ records “ ? ) was shown as a Counter. Now it is missing. It  would be nice to re-introduce this. Counters show transparency besides impressing visitors.

In my recent mail , I had suggested introducing such counters for “ City wise Job Search “ as well.

Apart from this, can you please add following extra “ write-up “ on “ Job Search, Job Suggest “ Page, right below the existing write-up ? – in different color ?:

Note :

• It is not necessary to select all the search criteria for conducting a job search.

• If you wish, you may select just ONE search criteria ( any ONE ), and click “ Get Results “.

• Many jobseekers [ especially fresh graduates ] are interested in jobs in a given city [ may be their home town or a nearby town ]. For them, a job in any industry / function and offering any designation / salary, will be good enough. They realize that remaining “ unemployed “ for a long period after graduation, becomes their biggest “ disqualification “ in the eyes of the recruiters. They are advised to select ONLY any city, leaving out other search criteria.

Once “ City wise “ Advertiser / Employer search gets introduced on the Resume Blast page, after seeing the U/I, I will send you additional page write up.It will be quite similar to the above

Regards

Hello Mr. HCP,

Just to update

Though we have uploaded the revised City-wise job search functionality just now on Job Suggest/Job Search page, we are facing major issues after uploading in prod environment due to high volume of records matching the city. Work is in progress to fix these issues and optimize the performance. All of us i.e. Abhijit, Shivani and me are working on this issue.

Will update you as soon as this is done.

Thanks,

Rohan
