RE: Raw scores

Rohan

Thanks for your analysis of the situation. We have to face and live with the “ reality”

Based on this, let us do the following :

Ø  Remove the FAQ page altogether ( by hiding the link ? )

Ø  Insert wherever required, clear statements telling the candidates that only their TEXT resumes get delivered to recruiters. Graphs can be seen only when recruiters are ONLINe

Ø  For each Function / Skill, tabulate keywords and their weightages, side-by-side, as found in IndiaRecruiter and in CustomizeResume databases. This will throw some light on what we need to do to boost the raw scores in all cases. Of course, increasing the no of keywords [ in any given Function / Skill database ],may improve the probability of “ catching “ that keyword in a resume but , at the same time , it will reduce the weightage of each keyword in the database , since total remains 1.00

Other day we talked about candidates being put off due to low raw scores coming for their skills and not for just raw scores as ZERO.

I think you misunderstood what all we discussed in the past and that day during our meeting. We can certainly modify functionality to not display the function/skill graph where raw scores are ZERO but these cases are few compared to candidates receiving low raw scores but greater than ZERO.

Through CustomizeResume site, candidates can customize their online resume and store on our site and employers/recruiters can view these customized resume versions online.

I don’t see anywhere code or functionality where these customized resumes are being delivered to employers/recruiters. There is no feature or code written in CustomizeResume (when it was handed to us) to perfectly convert these online resume’s with graphs to a proper doc or PDF format that can be delivered to recruiters/employers.

I think wherever you have made claims on your site about this, you didn’t review properly whether the feature is actually working as desired.

May be you have given write-ups to your earlier developers and they have just copy pasted whatever you have given without anyone developing, checking or testing whether these customized versions are actually delivered or not.

Thanks,

Rohan

Other day we talked about the possibility of candidates being put-off if their raw score is ZERO.

One way out could be that in those cases where the raw score is ZERO, we just do not display the Function / Skill graph !

Please consider and let me know what you think

In any case, wherever applicable [ eg ; “ Job Suggest “ page / “ Resume Blast “ page etc ], shall we add the following line ?

Ø  Only your TEXT resume will get delivered – but not your GRAPHS. A recruiter can see your Graphs only when he searches for resumes online “

I am getting confused !

It seems, elsewhere, we have made claims to the contrary !

We are “ enabling “ the candidates to “ Customize / Develop “ – and store / select any of the 3 versions of his resume for forwarding to recruiters “.Obviously these versions contain graphs !

May be you can come-up with some clever solution
